Warburton committed to Rangers amid QPR links

Rangers manager Mark Warburton said he is committed to the Scottish club despite reports linking him with the vacant QPR job.

Chris Ramsey was fired as QPR manager on Wednesday and Warburton's name has been mentioned as a possible replacement.

"I never knew that. It is flattering but that is football, isn't it?" Warburton said.

"My job is here at Rangers to put my head down with David [Weir, assistant coach] and the staff and take the club forward as quickly as possible.

"You can't ask players to be committed to a project and then not show commitment yourself.

"We know what we have to do. It is a fantastic club. Our targets are very clear. We have had a good start and our focus is 100 per cent taking Rangers forward."

"It was a pleasing afternoon's work. We showed good attitude from the first whistle worked tirelessly and showed quality," Warburton said.

"We just couldn't break down the defence as we hoped on occasions but we will learn from that.

"There is no lack of focus from players. We lost one game, we are five points clear, we are in good shape right now."
