Green promises not to walk away
Six clubs have gone public announcing that they will vote against Green’s attempt to transfer the SPL share held by Rangers to his newclub.
With four players so far refusing to transfer to newclub and various other probes including a criminal enquiry into David Murray’s sale to Craig Whyte last year the former Sheffield United chief hasn’t had his worries to seek.
Rumours that Sevco could be close to administration and out of football for 12 months haven’t deterred Green as he seeks to find a way forward for his newclub.
“I’m obviously disappointed but we have to deal with the cards we have been dealt,” he told Sky Sports.
“It’s unfortunate people have come out and made these comments when my understanding was that there was going to be a vote next Wednesday, but I can’t control other clubs.
“The consortium realised that if we went down the newco route it was a risk. It doesn’t alter their resolve.
“Those guys invested knowing these were obstacles that were outside their control and the resolve is there to see this job finished.
“I said at Murray Park on the 13th of May that my job will be finished when we have got financial security, when the debts are paid, when it’s floated on the stock market and the fans have got the right and the opportunity to buy shares. And nothing has changed since the 13th of May.”
With the SPL door firmly closed Green’s only option now is to submit a request to the Scottish Football League for a place.
“That’s something we have got to work on over the next few days,” he added. “First thing we have got to get membership of the SFA and then start speaking to the football league.”
