RANGERS legend Barry Ferguson refused to comment last night on speculation that he had resigned as Clyde boss.

Fergie was slaughtered by the travelling Bully Wee fans after they endured a tenth league game without a win.

Ferguson held lengthy talks with Clyde chairman John Alexander at full-time, and it is understood he offered his resignation.

But when he spoke to the media, he was non-committal about whether he would remain in charge.

Ferguson said: “I’m used to the shouts from the fans — I’ve had it for 24 years.

“But I’ve always worked hard. As a person I give it everything and I care about the club, but it’s hard when it starts affecting the players.”

Asked if he would soldier on after Clyde, who started the season as title favourites slipped to third bottom, Ferguson added: “All that’s important is the team starts picking up results to climb the league.”

The social media rumour mill kicked off immediately after Clyde's loss to Annan which leaves them third bottom and seven points off the foot of the table.

It was speculated Ferguson’s next destination would be Ibrox – to replace Mark Warburton as manager or as assistant boss to a more experienced candidate.

But Light Blues supporters were divided over the potential return of their old skipper.

No offence to Barry Ferguson but it's not the right time for him to become Rangers manager. If he was to come in as a coach fair enough. — Willy (@spatestonbear2) February 25, 2017

There's no way the board are going to appoint Barry Ferguson as head coach. Too much risk. However, I would take him as a youth coach — Jamie (@rhu777) February 25, 2017

Others were more positive about a Fergie comeback.

The rumours come less than 24 hours after Ferguson’s former Rangers teammate Kevin Thomson said on TV he could do the top job at Ibrox.

Bookmakers SkyBet have installed the former Scotland star as the second favourite (4/1) to take over from Warburton who left earlier this month along with number two Davie Weir and head of recruitment Frank McParland.

Fergie's old boss Alex McLeish remains favourite at 3/1.

Last week SunSport columnist John Hartson called on Rangers to take the Ibrox icon back in a coaching capacity.
