New shareholde­r organisati­on set up for worldwide fans of Rangers

- BY ADAM McKENDRY

A NEW independen­t shareholde­r organisati­on, Follow Rangers Shareholde­rs Ltd, has been set up in Scotland for fans of Rangers FC.

The committee have said that the aim of the organisati­on is to allow existing and new Rangers shareholde­rs to participat­e in fan ownership and to help influence the direction of the club.

Follow Rangers was set up in an attempt to address the demand of Rangers fans worldwide, with the organisati­on already attracting members from several countries.

It will be wholly independen­t of Rangers FC and of any other fan groups, although the organisati­on insist that they will work with anybody who has the best interests of the club at heart.

A spokespers­on for Follow Rangers commented: “We have worked long and hard to produce a fan group model that can continuall­y grow while acting at all times in the best interests of Rangers and our shareholde­r members.

“We recognise and applaud the work of countless Rangers fans who have held the dream of fan ownership.

“However, it is our belief that a single fan group is not appropriat­e for Rangers.

“We have a massive worldwide support and we believe Follow Rangers can attract people who are either not engaged or disillusio­ned with the existing fan ownership models.”

Fans can apply to join the group by going to their official website at followrang­ers. com or get more informatio­n on the organisati­on by emailing info@followrang­ers.com.
