Rangers defender Andy joins Bristol City on loan

The defender, 26, has been allowed to leave Ibrox in search of first-team football after suffering a series of injuries since his arrival on loan from Wigan in January 2007.
Webster signed a three-year deal with Rangers earlier this summer and manager Walter Smith believes the short-term move to England will help him get his career back on track.
SPL side Motherwell had also confirmed their interest in the former Hearts player, but he will now spend the next six months south of the border instead.

Smith told www.rangers.co.uk: "We have allowed Andy to go on loan to Bristol City until the January transfer window.
"We feel it will be beneficial for him to get first-team football there and we hope he can return to the level we all know he is capable of.
"Andy has had a torrid time since he arrived at Rangers and it will be good for him to get games every week in another environment."
