Thanks for your company tonight as Rangers ended a day of off-field drama with a display at Stark's Park that will hearten their beleaguered supporters. Join us again tomorrow for a full card of Scottish Premiership fixtures, plus news from the Championship, League One and League Two.

BBC Radio Scotland pundit at Stark's Park

"A dominant display away from home against a team who had won three matches. The carrot of leading the Championship was dangling for both teams, but Rangers set about the game from the word go. Rovers started well, but once Rangers scored the goal, they took control and looked like they had an extra man on the park."

With those three points, Rangers go top of the Scottish Championship on goal difference ahead of Hearts, who face Dumbarton tomorrow. Rovers remain third but will now know there is a big gap in quality between themselves and the visitors.

There's a few boos around Stark's Park, presumably from the disappointed home fans. Rovers were certainly outclassed as well as out-muscled by visitors Rangers, who seem to be finding their feet in the Scottish Championship.

A chance for a late consolation for Rovers, but Mark Stewart's header across goal evades the far post.

It is Nicky Law's turn to be thwarted by a blocked save by Ross Laidlaw as the midfielder gets in behind the Rovers defence.

Rangers substitute Dean Shiels forces another save from Rovers goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw with a low drive to the near post.

Yet another miss-cue in front of goal by Kris Boyd. The Scottish Premier League's all-time top scorer is having a bit of a nightmare, but it matters little as the three points are secure and the striker is replaced with Jon Daly.

Rangers get the fourth goal they have been threatening but have to rely on a penalty to do so. Lee Wallace is tripped by Rovers substitute Grant Anderson and Lee McCulloch thumps the spot kick low into the corner for his fourth goal of the season.

Kris Boyd is clean through again, but this time the striker is thwarted by Rovers goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw, who blocks the prodded effort with his knees.

Rangers defender Darren McGregor powers a drive wide of the far post from 14 yards as Rovers make a mess of their attempt to clear from the corner.

At last, a Rovers attempt on goal. Jason Thomson's 22-yard drive is deflected wide, but Rangers swat away the threat from the resulting corner.

Lewis Macleod thinks he is playing rugby for Edinburgh against Connacht as he goes up to challenge Rovers' Ross Laidlaw a couple of yards from goal. The goalkeeper ends up behind the line along with the ball, but referee Brian Colvin rightly gives the home side a free-kick.

Kris Boyd crumbles to the deck inside the penalty box under a challenge from former Rangers defender Ross Perry. Referee Brian Colvin is not impressed by the half-hearted claim for a spot kick.

Rangers are laying siege on the Rovers goal and goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw does well to parry then gather at the second attempt from Nicky Clark's powerful downward header.

Lee Wallace gives Kris Boyd a great chance to open his account for the evening with a fine curling cross. However, the striker's volley from 12 yards is tipped wide superbly by Rovers goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw.

Rangers full-back Lee Wallace thunders a drive over the Rovers crossbar before Kris Boyd, once the most deadly striker in the Scottish game, is clean through but bundles his drive wide of the far post with only the goalkeeper to beat.
