RANGERS will allow key workers in the NHS, Police and British Army to access free parking at the Albion during the Coronavirus crisis.

The Ibrox board have been in dialogue with supporter organisation Club 1872 and have moved to implement a proposal to aid staff at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

The Albion car park will not be in use for some time as the Covid-19 outbreak continues to have an impact on Scottish football but the area adjacent to Ibrox will now be made available for hospital staff.

A Club 1872 statement read: "Club 1872 has been speaking to Rangers over the past few days about how the club might help support key workers in Glasgow and in particular NHS staff who continue to work under very difficult circumstances on behalf of all of us.

"We suggested to Rangers that the Albion Car Park might be utilised by NHS staff at the nearby Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

"We are delighted to say the club has now confirmed that they have made the offer of free use of the car park to the NHS, Police Scotland and the British Army, should any of them be able to utilise it.

"Whilst the practicalities of any such use are still to be worked out, we are very proud that our club has stepped up with this offer of assistance and we will continue to liaise with them over any similar opportunities over the coming weeks.

"Club 1872 would like to take this opportunity to offer our sincere thanks to all key workers across the UK for their selfless work during the Covid-19 outbreak."
