WEATHER WARNING

The Met Office have issued a yellow weather warning for wind covering all of Scotland from noon on Saturday, and Northern Ireland from 10:00 on Saturday.

This then upgrades to an amber warning from 21:00 Saturday night covering all of mainland Scotland.

Supporters are strongly advised to allow extra time for their journeys to and from Ibrox and be prepared for road delays and short-notice public transport cancellations.

 

REMEMBRANCE AT IBROX

Rangers Football Club will once again come together to remember and honour the men and women who have served in our Armed Forces, particularly those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Remembrance holds a special place in the club's traditions, providing an opportunity for players, staff, and supporters to unite in paying tribute to those who have served, while recognising the sacrifices made by their families and loved ones.

A wreath-laying ceremony will take place at the Ibrox Disasters Memorial Statue at 13:30, with representatives from Rangers and St Johnstone in attendance.

The club will also be honoured to welcome serving members of the Armed Forces and veterans to Ibrox as part of this year's Remembrance commemorations.

The Rangers Charity Foundation will support the Scottish Poppy Appeal through a collection at Ibrox, helping Poppyscotland continue its important work supporting serving personnel, veterans, and their families. Supporters are encouraged to wear a poppy and contribute where possible.

A special Remembrance card display will once again take place in the Sandy Jardine Stand. Supporters seated in this area are asked to raise the card placed on their seat as the teams emerge from the tunnel and hold it aloft throughout the minute's silence.

We ask everyone attending Ibrox to join us in observing the minute's silence and paying their respects as we remember those who gave their lives in service.

We Will Remember Them.

 

STADIUM ENTRY

Season ticket smartcards are active for this fixture. All season ticket holders are reminded to bring their most up-to-date smartcard, particularly if they have changed seats for this season.

All non-season ticket holders who have purchased a ticket will have received e-tickets/QR codes within their ticket confirmation emails – these should be downloaded in advance of arriving at the stadium.

Please note a mobile-friendly e-ticket format is in use, and these should only be scanned directly from a mobile device.

Supporters who have chosen a print-at-home ticket may either print their ticket or scan it from a mobile device.

Supporters printing their e-tickets should ensure the size of the QR code can still be recognised by the turnstile system.

Turnstiles will open at 13:30, and information on how to use the turnstile system can be viewed here: BACK TO IBROX | QR Code Entry.

Supporters in the Copland Rear, Main Stand Rear, and Govan East Corner are advised to arrive early, as these areas regularly experience queues closer to kick-off.

Supporters with tickets for the Club Deck can enter the stadium via turnstiles at both the east and west staircases. The available turnstiles are 19–23 at the east and 50–56 at the west of the stadium.

We recognise not all supporters are able to arrive early for various reasons. However, where possible, we encourage early arrival to help ensure a smooth entry.

The club continues to explore ways of improving stadium entry and we greatly appreciate the co-operation and understanding of supporters as we work towards this.

 

TICKET OFFICE

This week, the ticket office will be open on:

  • Friday, 23 October: 10:00 until 16:00
  • Saturday, 24 October: 10:00 until kick-off

 Ticket office opening times are regularly updated on Ask Rangers.

 

MATCHDAY PARKING

Due to a significant reduction in on-site parking capacity, we’re unfortunately unable to offer general supporter parking to purchase or pay at the gate on matchday. We understand this may be inconvenient and appreciate your patience and understanding as we work within these limitations. Please consider alternative travel options and be mindful of local residents and parking restrictions when planning your journey.

All supporters parking within the stadium footprint (Argyle, Broomloan and Ibrox car parks) must enter via the Broomloan Road entrance. We kindly ask that you park no later than 13:25. Please also note there may be a short delay after the final whistle before vehicles can safely exit to allow supporters to clear from the footprint of the stadium.

Glasgow City Council enforces a pavement parking ban, with fines issued for illegal parking. Areas with exemptions can be viewed here.

 

FAN ENGAGEMENT

Our Fan Engagement team will be around the stadium footprint as a point of contact on matchday, providing assistance, information and support to help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, while also gathering your feedback.

Our Community Liaison and Disability Access Teams will also be present to assist supporters with any specific issues.

 

PLAYER-SUPPORTER ENGAGEMENT ON MATCHDAYS

We know many supporters, particularly younger fans, value the chance to see and meet players when they arrive at and leave Ibrox.

We want to improve those opportunities and make the process work better for supporters, players, and staff. We are looking at different ways to do this, both on matchdays and at other times throughout the season.

For Saturday’s match, the current player entry and exit arrangements will remain in place. There will be more stewards in the area to help manage access, support supporters waiting to see the players and make sure the area operates safely.

The player entrance and car park are busy before and after matches, with players, staff and vehicles moving through the area. We therefore ask supporters to follow the guidance of stewards and club staff and to help us make the experience as positive as possible for everyone.

At the end of the match, staff will need a short period to put the player exit arrangements in place before supporters gather behind the designated barriers.

We cannot guarantee every supporter will get the chance to meet or speak to a player, but we do want to create better and more consistent opportunities for supporters to engage with the team.

Thank you for your patience, co-operation and continued support.

SUPPORTER MESSAGE

The Rangers support are renowned for their incredible backing, both in noise and in colour, and we encourage every supporter to play their part in creating a positive and safe atmosphere at Ibrox.

The club reminds all supporters that unacceptable conduct has no place at Rangers. This includes discriminatory or offensive singing, chanting or banners; the use of pyrotechnics; throwing missiles or other objects; violence or threatening behaviour; vandalism; and entering the trackside area or field of play.

Supporters are also reminded that smoking, including the use of pipes, e-cigarettes and vapes, is strictly prohibited inside the stadium.

Such behaviour can have serious consequences for those involved, including removal from the stadium, club sanctions and, where applicable, criminal action.

The club has also faced significant sanctions as a result of supporter misconduct, including a fixture to be played behind closed doors. Further incidents will only increase the risk of additional sanctions, with the consequences impacting not only those directly involved but thousands of other Rangers supporters.

We ask everyone attending to support the team passionately and responsibly, and to help ensure Ibrox remains a safe and welcoming environment for all.

Supporters should note, as part of a national rollout across Police Scotland, officers may be wearing body worn video cameras at matches.

The cameras are intended to support policing activity and enhance safety. Further information is available via Police Scotland:
