Ally McCoist calls on Rangers fans to listen to Ibrox naming plans
McCoist said: “I can understand the business and finance side of it, but I can also understand the history and the tradition.
“There will be times where we’ll have to make decisions about the club that will not please the fans - but that doesn’t mean to say we shouldn’t listen to them.”

Hide AdRangers chief executive Charles Green was booed by a group of supporters from fans’ group The Union Bears when he addressed the crowd at Ibrox during Rangers’ 3-0 win over Annan on Tuesday. The group held up banners reading ‘Always Ibrox’. There were also violent scuffles outside Ibrox, with eight people arrested.
McCoist said: “I am 100 per cent behind the fans voicing their opinions - as long as it’s done in a legal way.
“I’ve gone on record as saying that we must listen to the fans.”
Green is believed to have seen a number of proposals for renaming Ibrox, including one from Newcastle United chairman and Sports Direct boss Mike Ashley.
