With Rangers set to make a
managerial appointment this week, and the complete lack of quality in defence a
huge headache for the charge, Streete’s availability could have Rangers on
alert to make him a permanent signing, even if only for squad depth.

However, Port Vale, in English
League 1, are said to be front-runners for his signature but their lowly 18th
place finish last season and zero chance of promotion to the Championship next may
sway it Rangers’ way if the Ibrox side is interested.

Happy for him to get a 2 year contract on a reasonable wage. That gives him a year to show he deserves more.
Can't be expected to push the boat out based on 45 minutes, but I feel he may be worth pursuing. We need some bodies in the door, he won't be the only CB we bring in.
"one very impressive performance" – bit of an exaggeration. An ok performance would be more accurate.
