Rangers fans made their anger towards the board known with a tifo ahead of their game against Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday - with a twist on Donald Trump's infamous 'Make America Great Again' slogan.

The Ibrox side held their AGM last week, with 'audible gasps' at the lack of transfer fees brought in for five players over the summer, and with poor domestic results seeing them slip away in the Scottish Premiership yet again, their loyal support are slowly but surely losing patience.

One area they have been doing well is in the UEFA Europa League, and with Tottenham Hotspur the visitors on Thursday, the atmosphere was always going to be top-notch - but fans have demanded more on the pitch. It's been enough for Rangers to make a huge banner to voice their displeasure at James Taylor and the rest of the board for failing to keep the pace in domestic competitions.

And with the teams walking out, an ode to Trump - who has recently been elected for a second Presidential term in the United States of America - was made, with his 2016-famous 'Make America Great Again' slogan being used to grill the board, instead reading: 'Make Rangers Great Again'.

Trump has shot to prominence in recent weeks after beating Kamala Harris in the votes over the pond, and his popularity is well-known worldwide - but his message has since gone beyond politics in that eight year gap.
