SUPPORTER BEHAVIOUR
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 a support recognised across Europe for the positive way in which they back their team. Songs of a discriminatory manner have absolutely no place in 2024.
As the men’s first team continue their season domestically supporters are reminded the SPFL and SFA have sanctions within their power to punish discriminatory chanting which would be extremely harmful to the club on and off the pitch.
We call on all our supporters to back the team in the right manner and prove what a force for good the Rangers support can be.
