WALK THIS WAY... TALK THIS WAY

Cue launch of Operation Govan Gravitas after pain in the gravitas years... here are a few words worth heeding for pair

- HUGH KEEVINS

I HAD to laugh when the first Rangers fan on the radio on Monday night's phone-in referred to “the boy Cavenagh".

That will be Andrew Cavenagh, I presume. Newly installed, multi-millionaire chairman at Ibrox.

The man who built his fortune on a billion-dollar healthcare insurance firm in the United States.

That boy?

The boy Cavenagh had made a sound first impression on the caller because of what he had to say to shareholders at an EGM earlier in the day which had ratified the injection of £20million worth of fresh investment in the club.

But the Ibrox media department might, going forward, have to issue Andrew with a copy of the newly-published Oxford English Dictionary, which has incorporated a total of 13 Scottish words that might be instructional on the basis that America and Scotland are countries separated by a common language.

One of the words is “shoogly” - which will be the description used to describe the peg Andrew's jacket is hanging from in the event of Rangers making a bad start to the new season.

“Aye, right” is another addition. Andrew will need to know this one because it will be the response he'll get from every Rangers fan he meets if his explanation for a poor start is found to be unsatisfactory.
