Ronnie Esplin - Boardroom Situation

Rangers advisor says 'two's not company' as he tries to find a way through the Ibrox boardroom minefield

 

 

PAUL SHACKLETON is currently looking into matters behind the scenes at the crisis-rocked club and says there has to be more than two directors running Rangers.

 

RANGERS adviser Paul Shackleton insists he is trying desperately to sort out the minefield that is the Ibrox boardroom crisis.

 

Amid an ongoing battle for control of the club, Craig Mather resigned his post as chief executive last week with non-executive board member Bryan Smart also standing down.

 

That followed the departures of non-executive director Ian Hart and chairman Walter Smith to leave just two board members of Rangers International in place - finance director Brian Stockbridge and non-executive director James Easdale.

 

Shackleton, from Daniel Stewart, the club’s nominated advisors, said: “I can’t go into detail but I have been speaking with shareholders.

 

“We are actively trying to sort the situation out, we are doing everything we can to get it sorted. It needs stability.

 

“I have been talking to everybody, trying to map out a path through this minefield. Once we have done that I think we can make a decision.

 

“There needs to be more directors at the club. Two directors are not suitable for the long term.

 

“But I’ve not been sitting on my hands. It is a very complicated situation and we are doing what we can to sort it out.

 

“There is a process to go through and I’m trying to come up with ideas. We are very keen to get it resolved as soon as possible and I think I am making progress.”

 

Last Monday the Court of Session forced Rangers to postpone its agm because they had refused to include on the agenda a request by shareholders for the election of four new board members, including former chairman Malcolm Murray and former director Paul Murray, as well as their allies Alex Wilson and Scott Murdoch.

Could the current Directors not appoint even some of the requisitioner's suggestions to the board in a purely interim basis, with the appointments being ratified @ the AGM???

 

We know these guys are ready & willing to take a place on the board immediately.
