Fan Reactions
'Rangers' fans shouted 'sack him in the morning' at the manager during the defeat, which marked 'Hearts' first win at Ibrox since 2012.
Lawrence Shankland scored twice, and 'Hearts' secured a 2-0 victory.
Shouts of 'Martin, go' also echoed from the stands.
This defeat has left 'Rangers' in tenth place in the table, with only four points from a possible fifteen.
Strangely, Martin has yet to win a league match since his appointment.
Management Support
Despite fan outrage, as reported by SunSport, Martin remains in charge as the new management led by Andrew Cavanagh supports him.
When asked about a potential resignation after the defeat, Martin firmly stated: 'No.'
'I don’t think many of those who want me to go wanted me here in the first place.'
'Fans are entitled to their opinion, so I can’t criticize them.'
'It’s not easy when the atmosphere is like it is. It’s directed at me, not the players.'
Martin also expressed doubt about whether support from management would continue.
