James Bisgrove insists Rangers are looking into the possibility of introducing safe standing at Ibrox.
The club's new chief executive has spoken to Rangers TV about a wide range of topics regarding his new leadership role at the club.
And one subject that has been on the minds of thousands of supporters for some time is safe standing.
Celtic, Kilmarnock, and Motherwell have such facilities at their stadiums, with Gers fans wanting similar railings implemented at Ibrox.

Bisgrove insists conversations with supporters' groups are underway, and that now is the time to revisit the matter.
He said: "We also want to invest in our infrastructure. We've seen that here at Ibrox with some of the things we've done around stadium expansion.
"We're sitting here in a new Rangers restaurant, the Blue Sky Lounge, we're working on a sports bar that is incredibly exciting.

"As part of that stadium expansion, that we presented at the AGM, we've got a clear plan in terms of how we want to improve the disabled facilities here at Ibrox.
"As part of that, we're also looking into the feasibility of safe standing, which is an area which has been spoken about for many years and it's an area I think we can revisit.
"Our financial health and sustainability gives us the resources to invest in the infrastructure.
"Of course, New Edmiston House which reopened earlier this year, that really gave us the flagship of the campus we've got here at Ibrox.
"We've got the museum that will open, and again, it's another revenue stream that will open for us.
"That's one of the areas where I'll be really focussed in terms of my leadership."
