Dave King warns Rangers fans of five-year wait before truth is known about Whyte and Green eras at Ibrox07:57, 13 September 2015Updated 08:25, 13 September 2015By Scott McDermottGREEN and Whyte have both been charged by Police Scotland in connection to Whyte's purchase of the club in 2012.PA/SNSCraig Whyte and Charles GreenDAVE King fears it could be FIVE YEARS before Rangers fans know the truth about Craig Whyte and Charles Green’s time at Ibrox.The club’s former owner and chief executive have been charged by Police Scotland in connection to Whyte’s purchase of Rangers in 2012.

 

New Ibrox chairman King is eager to find out what really went on as the club were plunged into administration and then liquidation.But he’s warned supporters they face a long wait for answers.King said: “I have some experience of lengthy, complex litigation and I think this will run for quite a few years.Murray claimed he was duped into selling Rangers to Whyte“When you have the intervention of Police Scotland’s criminal case alleging against Green of conspiracy, it starts to get complicated.“I’d imagine a lot of parties will now be looking at civil litigation. I really see this being tied up for a number of years.“I don’t think it could possibly happen in two – I would say it will be closer to five. We believe that if anything is found to be untoward, they should be held accountable.Read more: Rangers trio run gauntlet of angry fans after they're charged with a serious organised crime conspiracy“That period of history with Rangers is clearly something the club and supporters have not been able to put behind it.“But it’s more likely, once the criminal case is aired, we will get some clarity as to what was really going on.“We are as much in the dark about it so it will be interesting to see it unfold when the case is presented in court.”

 

King, who was back in Glasgow this week, has reached a settlement with former boss Ally McCoist , who had been on gardening leave McCoist’s contract has been terminated but ex-caretaker boss Kenny McDowall will be paid until his deal ends in February.King said: “The circumstances are different. I don’t feel he has the alternative opportunities that Ally perhaps has in the marketplace.“He’s earned his gardening leave, the circumstances were out of his control, and it would be improper for us to even suggest we wouldn’t honour his contract in full.”
