“We also firmly believe relaunching Club 1872 with a new name and brand, which captures our new heritage focus, isessential and 95% of contributors agreed with us.”Despite the change in direction, the group has made clear that its involvement in Rangers’ shareholding will not disappear.

Club 1872 intends to continue purchasing shares whenever the club launches future issues, ensuring that investmentremains part of its long-term strategy.
