Rangers Chief Executive Charles Green, Manager Ally McCoist and Finance Director Brian Stockbridge tonight received a commemorative plaque from the London Stock Exchange on the successful listing of Rangers shares.

Trading in the shares starts tomorrow when the market opens at 8am.

A total of £22.2 million has been raised from professional and institutional investors and supporters which will be used to take the club forward, strengthen the squad when appropriate and improve facilities.

Charles Green commented: “I am delighted to receive this plaque from the London Stock Exchange commemorating the day that Rangers becomes a public company and I look forward to the Club growing in value as we get back to our rightful place at the top of Scottish football.

“This is an exciting time for everyone associated with this 140 year old institution but we are just at the start of the journey.

“We are rebuilding and Rangers will rise again and we will do so with the help of our fans and the institutional investors who are on board.

“This process has generated over £22 million which has exceeded the figure of £20m that we set out to raise when we announced our intention to float the company on 11th October 2012.

“I would like to thank our supporters who stepped up to the plate when asked to buy season tickets earlier in the season and have done so again at a time of year when money is extremely tight.”

About Rangers International Football Club plc

The Rangers Football Club, formed in Scotland in 1872, is one of the world's most successful clubs, having won 54 League titles, 33 Scottish Cups, 27 League Cups and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1972. The Club's loyal and sizeable supporter base, both in Scotland and around the world, enables the Club to boast one of the highest percentages of season ticket holders in the UK, with over 37,000 having been sold for the current season. Playing at the 50,987 seater Ibrox Stadium and benefitting from the world class 37 acre Murray Park training facility, the Club has been a dominant force in Scottish football for decades. This world class stadium, training infrastructure and a loyal and passionate global fanbase provide an excellent foundation for the Rangers Group.

Currently the Club is competing in Division 3 of the SFL, though it is the intention of the Directors and the manager for the Club to return to top level football as soon as possible. The history, facilities and ambition of the Club are such that the Club remains a desirable destination for foreign and domestic players alike. The first team squad is managed by Ally McCoist, the former Rangers forward, who remains the Club's all-time leading goal scorer.
