CHAIR TODAY... GONE TOMORROW

SIR DAVID MURRAY Bought Rangers for £6million in 1988 and spent just over 20 years at the helm, delivering 41 domestic trophies and reaching a European final, but racked up crippling debts. Blamed by many for demise.

CRAIG WHYTE Acquired the club from Murray for just £1 but it was disastrous spell and Rangers were placed in administration just nine months later. Was later cleared of taking over the club by fraud. MALCOLM MURRAY Appointed chairman by Charles Green but lasted just 187 days before he was sacked after a video of him drunk was leaked on to the internet.

WALTER SMITH Legendary former boss took on role in a bid to bring much-needed stability but lasted just 67 days due to the bitter infighting on the board.

SANDY EASDALE Owns McGill’s buses along with brother James, who was also on the board. Unpopular figure during Mike

Ashley’s involvement at the club which led to plenty of fan unrest.

DAVID SOMERS Synonymous with shambolic AGM held inside a tent on Ibrox pitch. Accused by fans of “self interest, contempt for shareholders and dearth of understanding of his role”.

PAUL MURRAY Removed from the board following Whyte’s takeover but part of repeated attempts to wrest the club from the wrong hands and finally succeeded alongside Dave King. DAVE KING South-Africa based tycoon was hailed a hero after he won a boardroom victory in 2015 and spent five years at the helm before stepping down last year to concentrate on other business interests.

DOUGLAS PARK Lifelong Gers fan and current chairman, above, led the Three Bears movement that took control of the club along with businessmen George Letham and George Taylor.
