Rangers are "not oblivious to the noise" among the fanbase over Russell Martin's appointment as head coach, says chief executive Patrick Stewart."I'm aware supporters have strong views on who the right person for the role is," Stewart said. "We're not oblivious to the noise. Not at all."We're confident though - because we conducted such a thorough process - that the supporters will get behind him, particularly when they see him in action."With pre-season training just a matter of weeks away, Stewart knows the club has to stop sacking managers after the short reigns of Giovanni van Bronckhorst, Michael Beale and Philippe Clement did not deliver what was challenge for Martin is not an easy one: deliver culture change and good results he can, he will be an integral part of the "strong future" his chief executive sees on Rangers' more: Rangers now in 'seismic' period

Is Gerrard 'not up to the task' or a 'safe step' for Rangers?
We asked whether you would you like to see Steven Gerrard reappointed as Rangers what some of you said:William: No way should Gerrard be next Rangers manager, he's just not up to the It doesn't really matter who the manager is, it's all about the players that are brought in and whether they can beat the low block that they will face week in week out. Gerrard wouldn't be my first choice but I would take him before an untried manager like Davide Don't want Gerrard back, he had his chance and walked away. I'd bring Giovanni van Bronckhorst back who was very harshly treated and never got the time he deserved after Seville and winning the Scottish Cup. If Gerrard comes back he'll no doubt leave us again when a top English Championship club comes The club should get someone who has never been with Definitely. No doubt people will look at trophy stats and be concerned but that doesn't tell the whole story. Build a club from dross to Europa League finalists, created a team of invincibles, and won by far the most important of the nine trophies available. With such a short turnaround, we need someone to hit the ground running. In Gerrard we have that. Let's go!Ruaridh: The potential return of Gerrard sounds like a fairly safe step in the right direction. He understands the club and fans alike. That said, the club already have a very capable pair of assistants available in the shape of Billy Dodds and Neil McCann. I'd be looking to reinstate that pair ahead of any other potentially less experienced No, Gerrard should not return. Who's to say he won't leave us in the lurch again and his record since he left is dismal. Not sure what the answer is but we need a manager who has proved themselves as we need to turn things around quickly and put up a credible challenge to our Don't think Gerrard is the answer, but when we look at options available not sure we would get anybody better. Team needs built from back to front. Can't defend, especially set-pieces, and can't break teams down. So an experienced coaching team is required. Don't believe Steven Davis and Jordan Henderson fit the role.
