RANGERS fans made their feelings clear towards Russell Martin and Patrick Stewart outside Ibrox ahead of today’s showdown with Celtic.

Martin is only TEN games into his tenure but it’s already reached boiling point at Ibrox after Gers failed to win any of their first THREE league games and following Wednesday night’s humiliation in Bruges.
Rangers crashed out of the Champions League following a 9-1 aggregate defeat against Club Brugge, with fans calling for Martin’s dismissal during the away leg in Belgium.
Fans could be heard chanting ‘Martin, Martin get to f***’ in the Jan Breydel Stadium as the Light Blues fell FIVE goals behind in the first half.
And fans protested against the manager and chief before today’s derby with banners telling them to LEAVE the club amid the shocking start to the season.

Banners reading ‘Martin and Co must go’ and ‘we deserve better, enough is enough’ were pinned on gates outside the stadium, with pictures of Martin and Stewart accompanying the messages.
Martin has won just three games out of 10 since taking over as Gers boss.
Wins over Panathinaikos and Viktoria Plzen in Europe along with a League Cup victory over Alloa are all the manager has to show for his reign so far.
Martin could ease some pressure with a first Old Firm win in the dugout against Celtic.
He’s opted for a new-look team against the Hoops, with new signing Bojan Miovski thrown in from the start.
SunSport exclusively revealed that Nico Raskin WOULDN’T be involved after Martin told the midfielder he was booted out of the squad for the fixture.
He’s not in the squad, while skipper James Tavernier returns to the starting side to take Max Aaron’s place.
Connor Barron starts alongside Mohamed Diomande and Thelo Aasgaard in midfield.
Mikey Moore has also been given the nod as he takes Oliver Antman’s spot in the team.
