Rangers sack three losers in a month – Andrew Cavenagh not messing about | OneFootball

Rangers ruthless rebuild under Andrew Cavenagh

The revolution inside Ibrox is moving fast. Rangers ruthless rebuild continues. Rangers have seen three major departures in just over a month. Russell Martin, Kevin Thelwell and Patrick Stewart are all gone. The 49ers want to win, and Andrew Cavenagh is making sure that happens. This level of change signals a serious shift in power at Rangers, and it’s clear the new regime refuses to tolerate mediocrity.

Cavenagh takes full control

Andrew Cavenagh has shown his ruthless side since the 49ers took control of Rangers. He is not here to watch the same tired mistakes repeat themselves. Martin was removed after failing to deliver progress on the pitch, while Thelwell’s recruitment policy was called into question from day one. Stewart, meanwhile, never looked convincing in the role of chief executive. Cavenagh has made it clear that Rangers must be run like a serious football institution, not an old boys’ club built on excuses.

The 49ers have given him full backing, and he’s using it with purpose. The scale of change is staggering, but it feels deliberate. Every move sends a message that Rangers are no longer accepting second best. Cavenagh’s leadership already feels decisive, clinical and focused on the bigger picture.

Rangers demand standards again

This is not a vanity project for Cavenagh or the 49ers. Their involvement is about restoring Rangers to the top. After years of half-measures, this new regime is demanding accountability from everyone involved. For too long, standards at Ibrox slipped while rivals built smarter structures. Now that era is over.

By cutting loose Martin, Thelwell and Stewart, Rangers have reset the tone completely. The 49ers’ model depends on success, and that means results both on and off the pitch. There’s no more time for sentiment. The club’s ambition must match its fanbase again.

The 49ers mean business

Andrew Cavenagh’s influence continues to grow by the day. The 49ers want to turn Rangers into a powerhouse, and these firings underline that intention. Their strategy is ruthless but necessary. You cannot rebuild greatness without hard choices, and Cavenagh understands that better than anyone.

The boardroom now feels united behind a clear vision for the future. Rangers are being reshaped with modern efficiency, financial discipline and football intelligence. For the first time in years, the club feels alive with direction again.

Three firings in a month might sound brutal, but it shows ambition. The 49ers want winners, not survivors. Andrew Cavenagh’s Rangers will be built on that principle, and nothing less will do.
