**Rangers Football Club Backs Russell Martin in Official Statement**
Rangers Football Club has issued an official statement reaffirming their full support for manager Russell Martin amid recent speculation about his position. The club’s board expressed unwavering confidence in Martin’s vision, urging fans to remain patient and trust the ongoing process.
Martin, who joined Rangers in 2023, has faced scrutiny following a mixed start to the 2025/26 season. Despite a promising summer transfer window, inconsistent results in the Scottish Premiership and a challenging Europa League campaign have sparked debate among supporters. However, the club’s leadership believes Martin is the right man to lead Rangers forward.
In the statement, released on September 13, 2025, the board highlighted Martin’s track record, including his tactical acumen and commitment to developing young talent. “Russell Martin has our complete backing,” the statement read. “His philosophy aligns with the long-term ambitions of Rangers Football Club. We are building something special, and we ask our loyal fans to trust the process and stand united behind the team.”
The club acknowledged the passionate fanbase’s high expectations, emphasizing that unity is crucial during this transitional phase. Martin’s possession-based style has shown glimpses of brilliance, with standout performances from key signings and academy prospects. However, injuries and a congested fixture schedule have tested the squad’s depth, leading to calls for patience.
Rangers also praised Martin’s work off the pitch, noting his efforts to strengthen the club’s culture and community ties. The board believes these foundations will yield success, both domestically and in Europe, as the season progresses.
The statement concluded with a rallying cry: “We are Rangers, and together, we will achieve greatness. Let’s support Russell and the lads every step of the way.” Fans are now urged to back the manager ahead of a crucial run of matches, with the club confident that Martin’s vision will deliver silverware and restore Rangers’ dominance.
