Rangers Supporter Liason Officer Greg Marshall has made some interesting comments on social media when quizzed by a fan over the potential expansion of Ibrox in the future.
Gers fans have bought phenomenal numbers of tickets in recent seasons, with 10,000 on the waiting list for season tickets, and fans have regularly suggested it is time Ibrox is increased beyond it’s existing 50,817 capacity.
Not one for me to comment on as people will think I’m ITK. But the club have done a 3D survey of the stadium to assess all options available.

Marshall confirmed on Twitter that the club have had a 3D survey of the 120-year-old stadium to “assess all options available” as they look at a wide variety of improvements and upgrades around the ground.
The last major redevelopment of Ibrox came in the mid-nineties as the corners between the Sandy Jardine Stand and the Broomloan and Copland Road ends were filled in and the big screens installed.

With over 47,000 season ticket holders last season, there’s clearly far more demand than the club can satisfy so expanding Ibrox may well be a neccessity before too long.
