Leading Rangers fan group Club 1872, the Rangers Supporters Association (RSA) and the Union Bears ultras have called for “greater accountability, competence and transparency from the leadership of the club” as they said in a joint statement that they are ready for talks with new Ibrox chairman John Bennett.

Club 1872 completed a £250,000 share purchase to move through the five per cent Rangers shares threshold once again and issued a joint statement along with two other influential supporters sections. It read: “The Union Bears, Club 1872 and the Rangers Supporters Association (RSA) have held a series of very constructive meetings over the past few weeks, sharing our experiences and concerns about the direction of the club over the last couple of years.
