Dave King has accused the Rangers board of frittering away the chance to build a lasting title legacy at Ibrox by failing to reinvest in the squad.
Just over a year on from romping to the club’s first Premiership success in a decade with a 25-point winning margin under Steven Gerrard, Rangers again find themselves trailing in Celtic’s wake. And former Ibrox chairman King believes his former boardroom allies must take responsibility for the position they now find themselves in after Saturday’s brutal Old Firm dismembering.
The Gers have banked around £100million over the past year with their European exploits and sales of star assets such as Nathan Patterson, Joe Aribo and Calvin Bassey. But boss Gio van Bronkchorst has been given just a fraction of that sum to rebuild his team and it showed as the lacklustre Light Blues suffered yet another Parkhead pummelling from Ange Postecoglou’s red-hot Hoops.
