KENNY MILLER landed Wolves a £20million windfall by blasting them back into the Premier League - but he insists that restoring Rangers to the Scottish top flight would be absolutely priceless.

The Ibrox hitman scored in the Football League First Division play-off jinal at the Millennium Stadium in 2003 when the Molineux club recorded a 3-1 win over a Sheffield United side including his current manager Stuart McCall and booked a spot in the big time for the first time in 19 years.

The 35-year-old striker insists it would be something else entirely, though, should he complete Rangers' journey back from the bottom rung of the game over the course of the coming month.

And the final lap begins this Saturday with a visit to Queen of the South in the first leg of the quarter-final.

"It was massive for us to go up at Wolves back then," he said. "The owner, Sir Jack Hayward, had invested a lot in the team and we'd just fallen short the previous season having been top two for most of the campaign.

"It would be different with Rangers, though, because this is my club. I fought hard to try and get back here over the last few years.

"It would mean the world to get us back where we belong and then go on to the next stage of challenging for the league and getting the glory nights of winning leagues and trophies back, too. The end goal, of course, will be returning to the Champions League."

Palmerston Park, of course, has been a real graveyard for Rangers this term.

They lost 2-0 in December on the day former boss Ally McCoist handed in his resignation.

Just when it looked like the side was gathering momentum under McCall, they returned to Dumfries last month and suffered a 3-0 thumping.

McCall has already said he will not be preparing on a plastic pitch for the visit to Queens' artificial surface, which is fine with Miller.

"We've played on enough of those pitches and the lads who have been here for the last two or three years have played on a lot of them," he said.

"So it's no excuse. We just haven't been up to speed in terms of our performances down there and we need to put that right before Saturday."

Hibs await the winner of this two-legged tussle with the first leg of the semi-final scheduled for Wednesday, May 20.

Miller hopes that the Edinburgh side's spell of inactivity until then may give Rangers an edge should they progress to that stage.

"You want to finish as high up the league as possible, but I'd much rather be playing games than sitting about or playing friendlies in the next two weeks as the second- placed team will be," he said.
