Dean Windass has defended his son and Rangers midfielder Josh Windass on social networking site Twitter.

The former Hull City and Aberdeen star has claimed on Twitter – quite boldly perhaps – that Rangers would not be in the top six of the Scottish Premiership without Windass.

The 49-year-old defended his son when a Rangers fan criticised him on Twitter.

Important player for Rangers

Windass has had issues with consistency, but the 24-year-old midfielder has been playing this season.

The former Accrington Stanley star has made 30 appearances in the Scottish Premiership for Rangers this season, scoring 12 goals and providing eight assists in the process, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk.

Rangers are third in the Scottish Premiership table at the moment with 69 points from 37 matches, a point behind second-placed Aberdeen.
