chilledbear 16 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 RANGERS Chief Executive Charles Green has reacted to news today that Craig Whyte has made certain claims in an interview with the BBC. In the interview to be broadcast later today Craig Whyte has claimed he introduced Charles Green to Duff and Phelps as the administrators searched for a buyer for Rangers. The Rangers Chief Executive said: “Yet again Craig Whyte’s version of events paints a misleading picture of what actually happened and it’s regrettable that the BBC is providing him with such a platform. “The facts are that direct contact was made by our consortium with Craig Whyte in the first instance as it appeared at that time that his shares would have to be secured in order for any purchase of the Club to progress. “I was not present when contact was initially made but subsequently met Craig Whyte who introduced me to the administrator. “I had no previous association with Craig Whyte and it is misleading to suggest he ‘brought us in’. “I was brought to the transaction by Imran Ahmad following Duff and Phelps contacting Zeus Capital in February, due to their experience in the football sector.“ http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/2423-charles-green-statement 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting and perhaps not surprising that they ended up preferred bidder. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 0 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 I didn't know that. Interesting and perhaps not surprising that they ended up preferred bidder. Not really, I imagine their job as administrators was also to try and find bidders where possible. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewarty 2,060 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 its all adding up now. we knew green and co were hand picked at the start. How so? We knew D&P were hand picked. As for Green/Zeus, we have two sides to the story. Maybe the BBC can back up some allegations with verifiable facts. I'm not holding my breath on that count. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not holding my breath on that count. just something about this whole takeover and owner consortium doesnt sit right with me. the manager wasnt back properly. a whole squad of players have left with only a handful replacing them. they keep pandering verbally to the fans indirectly begging for our money. i dont know. i just cant come to trust them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
