Rangers will retire the number 12 jersey as a token of appreciation to fans who have supported the club through difficult times.

A statement on the Rangers website says: "Fans from Govan to America have really stepped up and shown their incredible backing in what has been a difficult last few months and supporters have made a positive difference to their beloved club by filling Ibrox and cheering on the team."

Saturday's game against Motherwell at the Ibrox stadium will be the jersey's last outing. There will also be a personal message of thanks from boss Ally McCoist on every seat.
