A Gaard of dishonour

Thelo admits Gers' awful form is just not good enough

- BY MARK PIRIE

THE message has been sent loud and clear from the Rangers fans - they want change.

Russell Martin saw his fifth defeat since stepping into the intense Ibrox cauldron as Genk left Glasgow with three Europa League points.

During a series of lacklustre domestic campaigns, European adventures have offered a brief respite for fans - but it was more of the same old story for the team sitting in 11th spot in the Scottish Premiership on Thursday night.

In fact, Gers appeared to take a step back against the Belgian side as they failed to build any momentum from their Premier Sports Cup victory over Hibs last weekend.

Chants of "Martin, get to f***" rang out from the home stands from what remained of the 38,000 punters who had stayed to hear the full-time whistle in midweek.

Owner Andrew Cavenagh was in the stadium for the second game in a row to experience the toxic atmosphere with Martin revealing postmatch that pre-arranged talks were set to take place.
