Green makes Mel Gibson accusation at Brian Kennedy
Green will be named as this week’s preferred bidder for the stricken club despite the media onslaught from Kennedy.
The Edinburgh-born businessman dominated the headlines on Friday as he warned Duff and Phelps that they’ll have blood on their hands after turning down Kennedy’s latest bid for Rangers.
Duff and Phelps responded by going into the detail of the Kennedy bid which had factored in income from Europe and claimed money due from the January sale of Nikica Jelavic to Everton as part of the package.
Picking up on the Kennedy bashing theme Green told the Sunday Mail: “For the last three months I have been working on a deal to save this great club. I have seen what has happened and it has been horrendous.
“But unlike everybody else who is doing it for their own personal glorification, like Brian Kennedy, we just want to save the club.
“Kennedy wants to be a movie star and doesn’t want to be a chairman of the club. He thinks he’s Mel Gibson.”
Green had a short and unpopular spell in charge of Sheffield United in the 90’s and has also had an involvement in a football agency.
Yesterday he held talks with Ally McCoist to get a grasp of the footballing problems that he would face as Rangers owner.
On Wednesday Rangers will appeal against a 12-month transfer ban imposed by the SFA.
A number of Rangers players will be able to quit the club in June for reduced fees after negotiating a three month pay cut in March.
