BBC pundit feels sorry for Russell Martin after what happened in stands after Rangers win vs Livingston
Rangers picked up their first victory of the Scottish Premiership season on Sunday with a 2-1 win over Livingston.
The win was Russell Martin's first in the league as Rangers boss since he took over in June.
Club captain James Tavernier put his side 1-0 up in the 23rd minute before missing from the spot just three minutes later.
With just four minutes of added time left, and long after Livi had equalised, loanee Max Aarons found himself on the end of a loose ball before firing home right in front of the away end.
Kevin Thomson feels sorry for Russell Martin as boos echo from the Rangers faithful
Russell Martin's side have drawn four of their six league games this season, also crashing out of the Champions League qualifying after an embarrassing 9-1 aggregate loss to Club Brugge.
Despite picking up their first win of their league campaign, Martin was booed by the Rangers fans.
Kevin Thomson felt sorry for Martin after seeing the scenes in the away end, telling BBC Sportscene: "I've felt really sorry for Russell. I think the humanity comes out if you've got that in you. It's never nice to see.
"I feel for him but he represents a big club that comes with huge expectation, and if you don't deliver on that or get close to meeting the expectations, then you come under pressure.
"I do think they're going to have to go on a big run to try to change the narrative."
There has been a lot of talk surrounding Martin, who, despite their win, blamed the state of the pitch away at Livingston.
Martin is under a lot of pressure to find results in the hope that it keeps him in the job.
Rangers continue to struggle in front of goal
Martin's side have scored just five goals in the league this season, the second-worst in the league, alongside St. Mirren.
Tavernier has always been Rangers' main source of goals, scoring 134 goals for the club in 10 seasons. He has continued this, scoring three of the club's five goals.
Rangers look in desperate need of a goal-scoring number nine, with summer signing Bojan Miovski scoring only one goal in the Scottish League Cup.
Youssef Chermiti joined for £10million from Everton, and is yet to get off the mark after four appearances, including one start in the Europa League.
