Blues boss Kieran McKenna has dismissed claims he has held talks with Scottish Premiership giants Rangers.

Speculative reports earlier in the week claimed the Northern Irishman is among those coveted by the Ibrox club and had held talks with the Glasgow side following Russell Martin’s sacking after a disastrous 17-game spell and ex-boss Steven Gerrard turning down the chance to make a return.

Asked whether the reports were news to him, McKenna confirmed: “There’s no shred of truth in that.”

Town1Inter0 added 14:43 - Oct 15 Why would he want to go to a lower league club? Rangers are a car crash at the moment, in any case.

BobbyBell added 15:09 - Oct 15 McKenna has a wonderful, secure and well paid job here with so much potential for the future. The backing he receives is the envy of many managers. Why would Rangers be of any interest to him.

OliveR16 added 15:15 - Oct 15 It will be several lifetimes before an Ipswich manager needs, as Russell Martin did, a police escort to protect him from the club's own 'fans'. Toxic is an inadequate word for that job.

Gforce added 15:26 - Oct 15 Obviously complete rubbish. Why on earth would he even consider going to that mickey mouse league, where 90% of the clubs are league one standard.

Bazza8564 added 15:27 - Oct 15 Rangers is a fine club but the SPL, and brief European involvement in their comps is nothing to what we COULD achieve here. The guy is well paid, adored by the fans and has the world at his feet. Why would he ever go to a club who get through managers faster than Trump can get impeached?

Linkboy13 added 17:05 - Oct 15 Apparently McKenna was the sixth highest paid manager in the Premier league last season , which probably makes him the highest paid in the championship. He's on a lucrative contract at Ipswich and anyone requiring his services will need very deep pockets and with due respect i cannot see that being Rangers.

armchaircritic59 added 19:24 - Oct 15 SPL? Mickey Mouse league. Does sometimes produce some really good players, who often then get snapped up by the Premier League etc, which at least partly explains the problem. Zero chance of KM turning up there. Much bigger possibilities here, if we as a club want to grasp the nettle.
