Rangers Football Club has condemned a recent display of an anti-woke banner by a small minority of their supporters during a Europa League match. The banner, which UEFA termed as "racist and/or discriminatory," prompted a disciplinary charge against the club and led to condemnation of associated fan behavior, including object throwing and pyrotechnics. Rangers expressed embarrassment over the situation, stressed their commitment to diversity, and instructed fans not aligned with this value to disassociate themselves from the club. The club is determining accountability for those actions and acknowledges potential repercussions from UEFA.
"Rangers is a modern, progressive football club and we are fiercely proud of our diverse playing squads, workforce and support."
"For the avoidance of doubt, if you do not believe in 2025 that absolutely everyone is welcome to follow Rangers, then you should disassociate yourself with the club immediately."
