Whereas the likes of Ronald de Boer and Arthur Numan were a successful part of the Orange invasion, Konterman did not make a similarly impressive impact. He endured a difficult start at Ibrox, where constant defensive errors led to the creation of the nickname "Bertie Bombscare".
However, following the arrival of Alex McLeish, Konterman was often used in an advanced role in the heart of the midfield. In this position, his defensive frailities were not so readily exposed and he went on to become a cult figure at the club, particularly after netting from 30 yards against arch rivals Celtic in a League Cup semi-final. After a 3 year spell with Rangers and winning 6 caps for Dutch national team, Konterman returned home in the summer of 2003 signing for Vitesse Arnhem.
