"I always thought if I kept playing and kept performing it would come. Thankfully it has."
Rangers defender James Penrice has reflected on his journey from part-time football to earning his first senior Scotland call-up at age 27 under manager Sebastien Pocognoli. Currently on loan at Rangers with an option to buy from AEK Athens, Penrice scored on his debut and quickly established himself as a key figure under manager Derek McInnes.
