RUSSELL MARTIN is confident Rangers can continue their fine run of form when they face St Johnstone on Tuesday night.
Graeme Murty’s side saw off Hearts at the weekend as Jamie Murphy and Martin scored in either half to clinch a comfortable Ibrox victory.
Rangers have won seven of their last eight outings in all competitions, with the only slip-up coming as they lost to Hibernian on home soil earlier this month.
And defender Martin is pleased with the positive steps that the Light Blues are taking at present as they look to finish with a flourish this season.
He told RangersTV: “I think it’s just continuous progress and improvement – that’s what we’re looking for. Now we have to go and back up [Saturday] away from home against St Johnstone.
“Otherwise, it would take the gloss off the Hearts result a little bit so we have to back it up.
“We have been good away from home recently and if we play anywhere near what we played against Hearts, and we have to keep that level of performance up, then we’ll go there confident of winning the game.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
