RANGERS fans have again chanted for the removal of Russell Martin as manager.
Fed-up punters made their voices heard once more as the under-fire boss took charge of his side’s clash at Livingston.
Martin took his place in the dugout once again amid the seemingly ever-intensifying fan anger towards him.
Rangers had failed to win any of their five Premiership matches prior to the trip to Livi, the club’s worst league start for 47 years.
Martin, 39, was a divisive appointment as boss from the off and a horror run of results have given supporters little appetite to change their minds.
Fans chanted for his removal during the 2-0 defeat to Hearts at Ibrox a fortnight ago.

Loud chants of “Martin, Martin get to f***” broke out that day, with the same brutal outburst heard at both the Premier Sports Cup clash with Hibs and Thursday’s Europa League meeting with Genk.
Thousands of fans lined Edmiston Drive prior to the first of those games too, loudly protesting against Martin and chief executive Patrick Stewart.
Gers supremo Andrew Cavenagh and other club chiefs have so far stuck with and backed their man.
Just 38,000 fans turned up to watch Thursday’s clash with Genk, a night that ended in more disappointment with a 1-0 defeat.
Fast forward to today and Martin was jeered by Gers fans as he made his way into the stadium at Livingston.
And 18 minutes into the match, those now rather familiar X-rated chants echoed around Almondvale, where Rangers fans were occupying three of the four sides.
Chants of “Martin, Martin get to f***” could once again be heard audibly on TV and radio coverage.
Moments later, Rangers fans did finally have a reason to cheer.
James Tavernier finished off a brilliant move to put their team 1-0 up.
The Rangers captain did, however, spurn a golden chance to make it 2-0 just moments later when he saw a penalty saved by Jerome Prior in the Livi goal.
