Davie Provan has slammed the gullible Ibrox fans who forced Mike Ashley out of Ibrox.
The shambles over Mark Warburton sums up a club with no direction and no one calling the shots.
Even the lowest graded of HR assistants would know that signatures are needed for resignations the phrase used is ‘tendered their resignation’.
With only vague talk about releasing the three amigos, also covering Davie Weir and star spotter Frank McParland, Sevco presented Warbo with a cast iron case for constructive dismissal when they announced his resignation on Friday night.
King’s regime has been a shambles since day one with broken promises the order of the day from NOMAD’s and share issues through to investment in the club.
Mr King has never invested a single penny into the tribute act.
Using a not so subtle PR campaign of the Real Rangers Man platform billionaire Ashley was demonised at every turn as the policeman’s son from Castlemilk swept to power.
“Who, but the seriously gullible, thinks King has either the cash or the contacts to make Rangers a proper football club again?” Provan asked in The Sun. Seriously could be switched to serially.
“King didn’t win the boardroom battle just because he was a ‘Rangers man’. He convinced supporters he had the wealth and the nous to turn the club around.
“Up until now, evidence has been in short supply. A bit like King himself, who appears to prefer the South African sunshine to his seat in the Ibrox directors box.
“How can you run a club of Rangers’ size from Johannesburg? This isn’t PlayStation.
“For all Warburton’s faults, and there are many, he found himself binned by e-mail? King should have been there to front up the manger but the tacky way it was handled sums up Gers right now. If there’s a way to make a backside of anything, they’ll find it.
“From the moment Sir David Murray sold the jerseys to Craig Whyte, Rangers have followed one blunder with another but the daddy of them all has to be the decision to go to war with Mike Ashley.
Provan added: “Rangers should have rolled the red Axminster down the marble staircase for the London billionaire.
“Instead, they p****d off the one guy with the money to give Celtic a run for theirs. You can bet Hoops’ directors had the cigars out when King won control.
“Ashley was the only threat to Celtic’s dominance. But King’s boardroom victory took the pressure off.
“Right now, Dermot Desmond can expect to hoover up millions in Champions League cash for years to come.”
Despite the disastrous performances of the team and string of broken promises there has been no sign of discontent towards Mr King.
With the fan leaders bought off with a set of brogues and a sup from the Loving Cup the problems of the tribute act will only escalate.
