SUPPORTER BEHAVIOUR
Supporters are strongly reminded the use of pyrotechnics within sports stadia is illegal. Not only could this lead to your arrest, but the club may also be sanctioned by governing bodies.
Rangers is rightly proud of our multicultural men’s first-team squad and diverse support. Our Everyone Anyone campaign sends a clear message of inclusion and togetherness and a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of discrimination on and off the pitch.
Rangers are a modern football club, with support recognised across Europe for the positive way in which they back their team. Songs and chants of a discriminatory nature have absolutely no place in 2024.
The manager and his team have expressed just how big an impact your fantastic support can have on performances – let’s ensure this is in the correct manner.
