The situation surrounding Russell Martin has taken a dramatic and troubling turn, sparking outrage among Rangers supporters and shaking the club’s foundation. Once a respected figure in football, Martin is now being branded a disgrace to Rangers’ history, a title no one wants attached to their name—especially at a club with such rich tradition and passionate support.
Fans are stunned by how he even ascended to such a pivotal role. There’s a growing sentiment that his tactical decisions, questionable substitutions, and inability to inspire results have severely damaged the identity and spirit of Rangers. But what truly lit the firestorm was the shocking message from Vaclav Černý. His public appeal to fans to stop supporting the club until Martin is removed has fractured the dressing room and turned fans against the club’s hierarchy. For a player to make such a bold statement speaks volumes about the internal disarray and loss of respect for the manager.
Supporters who have stood by Rangers through thick and thin feel betrayed. This isn’t just about poor form or a bad result—it’s about leadership, pride, and the standards expected at Ibrox. Martin’s tenure, which was initially met with cautious optimism, has descended into confusion and chaos.
If the board doesn’t act swiftly, the damage may become irreversible—not just in terms of results, but in unity. The bond between players, fans, and leadership is sacred at Rangers. Right now, it’s broken. Unless accountability is taken and changes are made, Russell Martin risks becoming a name remembered not for rebuilding the club, but for dragging it into one of its darkest modern chapters.
