Rangers' Martyn Waghorn will start scoring again, says Kenny Miller

Kenny Miller has tipped fellow Rangers striker Martyn Waghorn to bounce back in style after a frustrating day in front of goal against Alloa.

The Championship leaders missed a series of chances at the Indodrill Stadium as they were held to a 1-1 draw by the bottom club, with Harry Forrester and Jason Holt hitting the woodwork.

Waghorn was also among those who failed to convert a number of opportunities which manager Mark Warburton claimed should have led to them being "five or six" ahead at half-time, partly because of the performance of former Gers goalkeeper Scott Gallacher.

Former Sunderland striker Waghorn has now failed to score in five matches, but with 27 goals previous to that run, Miller feels it is only a matter of time before he finds the net again and warned Kilmarnock to beware of the player during Tuesday's Scottish Cup replay.

"It's just something that happens," Miller told RangersTV. "I don't think we can look to point the finger at Waggy or anyone for that matter for missing chances.

"The level of goals and the consistency of his play has been fantastic and he's been phenomenal in his first year at the club.

"He's maybe going through a bit of a dry spell just now where things just don't seem to be falling for him, or they are coming off a goalkeeper's shin, when before they were going through his legs.

"There's no doubt that a player of the quality of Martyn Waghorn will come through his spell and it would be no surprise to anybody if he were to go out and even score a hat-trick on Tuesday."

Jason Marr opened the scoring for Alloa on Saturday before Michael O'Halloran's equaliser, but Rangers had 24 efforts on goal, nine of them on target, and Miller will not panic after their dropped points.

"We are really disappointed with the fact that we have dropped two points," the 36-year-old said.

"However, if we create that level of chances between now and the end of the season then I will be very happy."
