CLINT Hill, the 38-year-old centre-half who has told by Pedro Caixinha he will not be having his contract at Rangers renewed this summer, last night expressed his disappointment he will be leaving Ibrox after picking up the Man of the Match award in the 2-1 win over Hearts.
"I'll be moving on unfortunately," he said. "It's been a great year. It's been hard on the pitch in terms of performances, but it's been brilliant for me to play at this club, to put the shirt on and play in front of the fans. It has been a big highlight of my career.
"Obviously, I am little bit disappointed because when you play for such a big club you want it to last as long as possible. But I have been in football long enough to know that when new managers come in they have different ideas and want different personnel.
"I am just trying to enjoy every minute. I will only take good memories away from this football club. Playing in front of 50,000 every other week is amazing. Even playing away is like playing at home. The fans have been fantastic as have the people at the club. It has been a great experience. I have thoroughly enjoyed it. I wish the club all the best."
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
