Rangers have confirmed the departure of Russell Martin as the club’s manager.

The Gers were held to a 1-1 draw away at Falkirk in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday to continue a poor start to the campaign under the former Southampton boss.

Fans have been unhappy with Martin since his appointment and disapproval has only grown in the weeks and months since.

Now Rangers have taken the decision to let the manager go and his backroom team are also leaving Ibrox.

Rangers said in a statement: “Rangers Football Club confirms that it has parted company with Head Coach, Russell Martin.

“While all transition periods require some time, results have not met the club’s expectations.
