Green eyes quick Rangers exit

Charles Green has admitted he plans to spend less than a year at Rangers.

Green is heading a consortium in place to buy the Ibrox club and will find out whether his offer to creditors is sufficient on Thursday.

Rangers director Dave King has accused Green of lacking the funding to take the club forward beyond then and predicted he would not last a season in charge.

Green denied the first accusation but admits he sees turning round Rangers as a relatively short-term task.

The former Sheffield United chief executive told the Daily Record: "Dave King said he didn't think I'd still be here in a year's time and do you know what? He's right.

"It isn't my intention to be here longer than that.

"If nothing much is added to what I can see on the table at the moment I believe I can get over all the hurdles in a year.

"I'd be very disappointed if I am not out of the club quickly."

Green revealed the personal benefits he anticipates from turning around the club.

"I'll be getting £2million in shares, not cash," he said.

What are the small band of Clique SPL referees going to do now, who will they give the penalties too. Green is only their with his phantom consortium to rip off Rangers, good luck too them, Rangers ripped off titles using money they didn't have..

So only 2 -3 days left of RFC....Mr (Loan Shark) Green will already have his '' sham CVA'' failure speech ready and will lay into the HMRC to try and deflect any blame from himself...Then he will announce his plans for a newco (being careful not to mention once again that he stands to make £3,000,000 out of the situation)…RFC fans should hope Dave King (as dodgy as he is too with his past) can block the Green takeover with the Court case he plans over Craigie Whyte’s shares.

Green could end up being our Fergus McCann,if he comes in ,does what he says he will do ,and goes within a year leaving a good stable foundation for the future,then good on him,and take his shares with good blessing,if he does it right the shares will increase in value,seems like a spade calling a spade kinda guy to me,at the moment we have nothing tp lose if he fails.

The juxtaposition of this headline, "Green seeks early exit" with the previous one of "Green sees bright future for Rangers is peculiar- does it mean the bright future is without Green? If I were a Ger's fan I would be afraid, very afraid of this guy........he does not sound like the financial savior but rather the financial devil! In Green you trust?
