Ferguson future still unclear

The 31-year-old, who was stripped of the captaincy and suspended for two weeks without pay for his role in the 'Boozegate' saga, has been linked with a summer move from Ibrox. After Rangers won the Clydesdale Bank Premier League, Ferguson expressed a desire to see out the final year of his contract.
But he told BBC Scotland on Saturday afternoon: "What happens next? I'm going to go away and enjoy a holiday with my family. If that is the end, at least I've come back with my head held high. I made a mistake. I can't turn back the clock."
Ferguson has been linked with West Brom and Barclays Premier League newcomers Birmingham, who are managed by former Rangers boss Alex McLeish.
The midfielder said he had endured a difficult couple of months and was reluctant to comment on transfer speculation linking him with a move.
"I didn't think I would get the chance to play again, but I've come back in the last three games," added Ferguson, who today made his first start for Rangers since his suspension.
The midfielder also praised the club's fans for their support following his recent difficulties.
"Last week, especially, the way they treated me when I came on for the last half hour (at Dundee United), meant a lot to me," he said.
Ferguson was delighted to help Rangers land their first double for six years.
He said: "It's great to win a double. It wasn't a great game, but at the end of the day it's all about winning and we've done that."
