Rangers manager Ally McCoist has insisted that he is "not embarrassed" by his team's away form in the Scottish Third Division.

The former Scottish Premier League champions have failed to win any of their three opening away fixtures this season after they were held to a goalless draw at Annan on the weekend.

"I won't lie, the away form in the league is a concern," said McCoist.

"It's always a concern when you haven't won an away game in the Third but it isn't an absolute disaster and I won't be pressing panic buttons.

"I'm not embarrassed by our away results. The fact four SPL teams were knocked out of the League Cup by SFL teams would show that they are tough places to play at."

Saturday's draw has left the Gers fourth in the Third Division table after five games.
