Ally McCoist, the Rangers manager, has told his players they cannot make an Ibrox career out of Old Firm wins alone after they followed victory over Celtic with a shock 3-2 defeat by Falkirk.

McCoist warned his players about complacency ahead of Wednesday's League Cup loss, but his worst fears came true.

He said: "The Celtic game is massive but it's not the be-all and end-all. It's no use performing out of your skin against them if you can't do it elsewhere."
