The board is expected to review his position during the international break after supporters blocked the team bus at Falkirk.

Overview

  • After a 1-1 draw at Falkirk, a group of Rangers fans tried to block the team coach and riot police cleared a path as Martin left separately under escort.
  • Rangers are eighth in the Premiership with one league win, 11 points behind leaders Hearts and nine off Celtic.
  • Martin said he will keep working “until I’m told not to” and accepted responsibility for the team’s performances.

  • Sky and local reports say discussions on Martin’s future are expected during the international break, following a 9-1 Champions League exit to Club Brugge and two Europa League defeats.
