CLUB 1872 have launched their election process to fill two of the five seats at their top table in the coming weeks.
Members who wish to serve on the boards of Club 1872 have until 5pm on May 21 to submit their applications and each candidate requires 15 proposers to support their bids.
Current directors Euan Macfarlane, Joanne Percival and Laura Fawkes are still within their respective terms and their positions are not up for election at this time.
But fans now have a chance to claim the two other spots available as Club 1872 seek to increase their influence at Ibrox and continue to invest in Rangers going forward.
Details of the election process were revealed on Thursday morning and an email to members states: "The Club 1872 companies are now accepting applications for the Club 1872 boards.
"We would welcome candidates who can commit the time and energy required to achieve the aims of Club 1872. The eligibility requirements are laid out below.

"Candidates and proposers must be either life members or have been donating monthly contributors of Club 1872 for a continuous period of at least six months prior to the date of this notice.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
