"I don't regret anything, I've learnt a lot and I'll definitely be better for it. I love Glasgow as a city, I loved living there, the people face-to-face were fantastic and I think it was character-building. The best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week."
"It was really difficult for the people around me - family, friends, when my kids came up they couldn't come to the game because of the level of abuse I was receiving at that point, and it was quite early on. But when you look back at it, you learn from everything, so there is stuff you would do differently, stuff you would insist on doing."
Russell Martin's tenure as Rangers manager ended in October after just 123 days in charge. Despite signing a three-year contract, he was dismissed following a 1-1 draw at Falkirk, having won only five of his 17 games with Rangers sitting eighth in the Scottish Premiership. His downfall began with a devastating 9-1 aggregate Champions League defeat to Club Brugge in August. Fan protests intensified throughout his spell, with tensions reaching a peak when supporters attempted to stop the team bus at Falkirk, forcing Martin to be escorted away by police in a separate vehicle. Reflecting on his experience, Martin expressed no regrets, describing it as character-building despite the difficult circumstances affecting his family.
