But it’s now understood Gillespie, 46, pulled out of talks at the eleventh hour.

And Gers chairman John Bennett is now looking at alternative options for the vital role.

Bisgrove sensationally quit in May to take a big money job in Saudi Arabia, as we first revealed.

Bennett has been desperate to name his successor with Gillespie the shock leading contender.

Major update on Rangers' CEO hunt as St Mirren vice chairman Jim Gillespie stuns club bosses | The Scottish Sun

 

The shenanigans continue.

 

This guy has changed his mind for whatever reason. A lifelong Rangers supporter we were told. Surely it would be a dream role for any Rangers supporter capable?

 

I know there was talk of an ongoing court case which he was involved in which may have muddied the water. Some kind of defamation case I believe.

Good.

Hopefully they have someone with a good track record lined up.

 

Won't hold my breath...

We can’t seem to do anything right these days

There is very little information, but much conjecture. I have decided long ago that I have enough headaches with the team and the manager, so I leave this side of the club to others.

Correct.that’s why he is no longer under consideration for the CEO role

Similar problem with the manager.

 

If somebody has a good track record then they tend to find a more lucrative job elsewhere.

Probably worried about his reputation being associated with a poor Rangers

I liked the link to the woman who had a senior position with Nordsjaelland/Right To Dream.

 

Bring in Henderby for the academy and all of a sudden it looks joined up.

 

Alas, that would be sensible!
