The ex-Dundee boss has appeared alongside fellow former Rangers midfielder Alex Rae in both home games this season and has caught the eye on both occasions.

Alongside Rae and Scotland Women’s National Team Manager Shelley Kerr – who also impressed the Rangers support at home – McCann provided an analysis of the 3-0 win over St. Johnstone.

The former Ibrox wide man– famed for his electric pace and sublime crossing – has been praised for his honest analysis of the performances at Ibrox and knowledge about football.

The club’s supporters took to Twitter to applaud the pundit as amongst the best ex-players discussing the game on television:

Kudos to Twitter user @CemetaryGates89 for the anti-Michael Stewart zinger.

These are just a drop in an ocean of positive comments aimed at McCann’s punditry by fans on Twitter.

The Ibrox faithful have very much enjoyed his inclusion on the club’s media channel and they certainly haven’t forgotten his contribution on the pitch.

McCann spent five years at Ibrox between 1998 and 2003, playing over 150 times and winning nine trophies with the club.

Rangers fans have also been enjoying RangersTV’s coverage so much that they’ve been asking why the club can’t just chuck Sky and keep it like this all the time.
