Rangers fans attending the clubs upcoming clash with Hearts at Hampden are being encouraged to take part in a special tribute for a fellow bear.
A minute’s applause is being organised for the 20th minute against the Jambos in honour of Blantyre bluenose Kyle Monteith.
The 20-year-old Rangers fan tragically passed away earlier this month and his girlfriend Elle Jean has made the plea to the Ibrox support to remember the youngster.
“Rangers vs Hearts game on the 1st December there will be a minute’s applause on the 20th minute of the game in memory of Kyle Monteith,” said Elle Jean [Scottish Sun].
The same Scottish Sun report also claims that Rangers themselves have been in touch with the family over the tribute, with the date set for the club’s next home game.
Kind-hearted Rangers fans have regularly taken part in tributes to supporters over the years and this minute’s applause will be a special one for Kyle’s family.
Against Maribor last season, Rangers fans applauded the life of Jamie Davis, a young soldier who tragically lost his life to suicide after suffering PTSD.
Rangers fans did the same against Russian foes Ufa after fellow soldier Ryan Smith also tragically took his own life last season.
There were also tributes for young Murray Harkness from Cumnock, who was celebrated by Rangers fans in the match against Spartak Moscow.
