CAMMY PALMER admits the support of former Ibrox duo Rob Kiernan and Harry Forrester has been invaluable in helping him settle into life in California.
The midfielder made the switch to Orange County last month alongside Danny Finlayson and Matthew Shiels as part of a strategic partnership between Irvine and Ibrox.
Kiernan and Forrester have also headed Stateside after to continue their careers and all five have been keeping up to date with the Light Blues's fortunes this season.
Palmer said: "That was a connection that made things a wee bit easier and it was helpful to know those guys.
"We met Rob before coming over here when we were getting our Visas and we are all in a new situation together. We have all experienced Rangers, we know what that is like. They have been great in giving us advice and helping us out and really just being alongside us.
"We keep up with the games and get to watch them on streams or on the TV.
"It is hard sometimes because the games have been in the middle of the night or early in the morning so we can’t watch them all. But we do our best to try and support the team."
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
