<p>Supporters of Fenerbahce have <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/rangers-confirm-tragic-death-fan-involved-istanbul-traffic-accident-fenerbahce-clash/bltcc6778dec159e67e" target="_blank">shown remarkable solidarity by paying tribute to Christopher Potter</a>, the Rangers fan who tragically lost his life in Istanbul. Potter, a devoted Rangers supporter, had travelled to Turkey to watch his team compete but was killed in a road accident. His unexpected passing deeply affected the Rangers community and football fans worldwide, prompting an outpouring of support and remembrance.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>During the first-leg match in Istanbul, Rangers players wore black armbands as a mark of respect for Potter. Back in Dennistoun, the neighbourhood where Potter grew up, a memorial wall has been created in his honour. The tribute site is situated near the football pitch and playground where he spent much of his childhood. A GoFundMe campaign set up by Potter’s close friends has been met with overwhelming generosity, surpassing £160,000 in donations. Among those contributing was former Scotland international Robert Snodgrass, who made a personal donation in support of Potter’s family.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Adding to the wave of tributes, travelling Fenerbahce fans made their own heartfelt gesture. A group of supporters posed for a photograph with a specially made flag honouring the late Rangers fan. The banner featured an image of Potter holding a Rangers scarf, accompanied by the words: "Rest in Peace. Christopher Potter. Fenerbahce London Association."</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Lovely touch by the Fenerbahce fans 👏💙 <a href="https://t.co/JWVGHtO1IE">pic.twitter.com/JWVGHtO1IE</a></p>— Oswalds Bar (@OswaldsBar) <a href="https://twitter.com/OswaldsBar/status/1900154010356588641?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 13, 2025</a></blockquote>
