on for another crack at the Premiershi­p next term.

Rangers are preparing for another significan­t turnaround during the close season and chairman Dave King has vowed to plough all season ticket cash into the transfer kitty in the coming weeks.

King yesterday thanked fans for their support as attentions turn to next season and he is determined to give Caixinha as much financial muscle as possible to ensure the Gers recover from a nightmare season in the Premiershi­p.

He said: “I can only marvel at the steadfast loyalty of our supporters. They are appreciate­d all over the world for the way they have stood by the club in the past five years. On behalf of the board and staff, I thank every one of them.

“The team didn’t perform to expectatio­n this season, but it is important to remember some targets have been met. In particular, getting back i nto European competitio­n was one of our non-negotiable­s for this season.

“We are now back on that stage and looking forward immensely to the Europa League qualifiers and our ongoing involvemen­t in Europe in the years to come.

“Pedro Caixinha and his backroom team have been assessing the squad since having arrived at Rangers and will make the necessary changes in the summer, so that we are as well prepared as possible for the qualifiers and the new season.

“All of our season ticket money will be invested in the football squad as we continue to work towards taking our club back to the very top of Scottish Football.

‘’The fact that we have already reached almost 35,000 renewals – against what has been a backdrop of transition and managerial change – demonstrat­es the terrific fan base that we have.”
