Ally McCoist not affected by Craig Whyte's SFA investigation

Rangers manager Ally McCoist has insisted that he is not affected by the club's off-field issues.

It was confirmed on Thursday that club owner Craig Whyte was under investigation by the Scottish Football Association over his past business practices.

The 49-year-old admitted that he was disqualified from being a company director after his time at Vital UK.

"My job here is to run a football team and hopefully put a winning team on the park," said McCoist.

"There is no point worrying about things you can't affect or have a bearing on.

"If you start worrying about it, you've got no chance. The players certainly won't worry about that."
