Embargo forces McCoist to gamble

Ally McCoist, the Rangers manager, admitted the club's imminent transfer ban means signing trialists was a major gamble, but he will still offer a contract to Greek defender Anestis Argyriou.

McCoist intends to add four or five players before a 12-month SFA embargo is applied to the club at the end of the current transfer window, next Friday and he added that the possibility of league reconstruction during that period was an influence on his decisions.
