Warburtons bread has experienced a boost in sales in Glasgow following the appointment at Rangers of namesake manager Mark.

Rangers supporters have been seen holding Warburtons wrappers in the air at games since the former Brentford boss took over at Ibrox.

And the 139-year-old baking firm has revealed that sales of their loaves in the Scottish city have risen by 11.7 per cent.

A spokeswoman told the Scottish Sun: 'We put this down to great taste rather than just the influence of Mark Warburton — but who knows?

'We would encourage the Rangers fans to keep on buying our bread.'

Expect to see more Warburtons wrappers in the stands when Rangers open their Scottish Championship campaign on Friday against St Mirren at Ibrox.

Warburton has made a solid start to his tenure in Glasgow by masterminding back-to-back cup wins over Hibernian and Peterhead.

Performances have risen on the pitch and Rangers defender Lee Wallace claims that much of that is to do with the fact standards have also risen off it.

Rangers defender Lee Wallace has revealed a new code of conduct which the players must follow

Revealing a new code of conduct which the players must follow, Wallace said: 'They are regulations about how you should behave as a Rangers player.

'It is to be signed and sealed and from here on in we will be as professional as we can be.

'It's everything you can imagine - timekeeping, leaving training equipment outside, that type of thing.

'There are fines and the funds go towards a charity at the end of the season. But we want to reduce those funds by acting in the right way day in day out and being the best we can be.
