FAB Members

Rangers launched its Fan Advisory Board (FAB) in November 2023 as a cornerstone of the club’s Fan Engagement Strategy and to demonstrate its commitment to fostering an even closer and more collaborative relationship with supporters and to help shape the strategic decision-making of the club’s board.

The FAB is also committed to engaging and consulting with the wider support base – for example, through the establishment of dedicated working groups – to best represent the interests of Rangers fans with the senior management team.

The executive board of Rangers have agreed to meet bi-monthly with the FAB. These discussions, fully minuted and publicly available, will help inform the board’s strategic vision for the club as well as other issues which could impact the wider support.

The FAB would be expected to discuss the following topics during a season:

  • The club’s strategic visions and objectives
  • Short, medium and long-term business plans
  • Operational matchday issues of concern to supporters
  • Any proposals relating to significant changes to club heritage assets
  • Stadium issues and plans
  • Club’s community strategy
  • Equality, Diversity and Inclusion commitments
  • Plans for broader supporter engagement
