FIVE former Rangers players have joined forces to urge fans not to buy Sevco season tickets and have brought in Donald Findlay to take control of the newco from Charles Green.
The dramatic move came last night after four more players announced that they wouldn’t transfer to Newco and the SFA told Green to have his membership application in place by Friday.
Former Ibrox defender John Brown claims to have an international consortium of investors ready to pump money into a new club bur makes his distrust of Green crystal clear after quitting his scouting role at the club.
“We want to say to the fans don’t buy your season tickets as we fear money is going to go in and then disappear,” Brown told The Sun. “That’s what happened under Craig Whyte and look where we are today.
“The fear of that money disappearing is a very real one for us. So this morning I say show us the title deeds, who has keys to Ibrox?
“We want to get you out of our club, we’ll help the fans fund the takeover. That will ensure that no greedy man can ever do this to Rangers again.
“I urge the fans to get behind us, starve them of your money.”
Andy Goram, Lorenzo Amoruso, Jorg Albertz and Brian Laudrup have all given their support to Brown’s consortium which also includes former Celtic fan Stephen McKenna.
The question of who actually owns Ibrox Stadium and Murray Park has never been fully answered with some suggestions that Craig Whyte may still be in charge.
Whyte appointed Duff and Phelps as administrators in February with Green agreeing a cut price deal with the administrators for the assets after his CVA offer was rejected.
Brown added: “I am making this decision because I believe the regime in charge are not the true owners of the football club.
“They have documents under Sevco but we want to know whose name is on the title deeds for Ibrox, Murray Park and Albion car park. That’s the key to the future of our club.”
“Today we ask Charles Green: How much do you want for the club so we can put it into the hands of the Rangers family?”

They dont have decency to die peacefully. All this talk of rangers this rangers that. Rangers are no more they are gone. The only thing left in there place is a circus. And they are fast running out of clowns. The orcs will not support the new club if they ever get going as its in there nature to only follow a team that wins. In there case through cheating. And where were these vocal players that are heartbroken at the state of there beloved institution? When they could have helped. Scum the lot of them
