MICHAEL STEWART has questioned Rangers over their tune choice in a new kit advert.
The Ibrox outfit released a special edition 150th anniversary shirt yesterday with Castore and alongside the release they premiered a new advert.
The advert dives into the history of Rangers and is accompanied by the song 'Four Lads Had a Dream'.
Stewart took to Twitter today to question the use of the song as he claimed it was "offensive to many".
He said: "Why this tune? This is supposedly a celebration, so why use a tune so offensive to many, a tune connected to a song that some Rangers fans were charged for singing only last month. Why would you do this?"

There are no offensive lyrics in the song 'Four Lads Had a Dream' which is a tribute to Rangers' founders.
Although years after it was first sung the same tune has been used for the anti-Irish 'Famine Song'.
