Simon Jordan crunched the numbers and insists Rangers still landed a bumper windfall following Champions League qualification despite Giovanni van Bronckhorst stressing that it wasn’t the mega-money figures that had been reported.
The Ibrox club are due to release their financial results imminently ahead of the announcement of a date for the AGM which will give shareholders the chance to grill the board on Rangers becoming the worst side in Champions League history, as well as surrendering the title to Celtic.
Van Bronckhorst reiterated what managing director Stewart Robertson said earlier this season – “some think the money has fallen out of the sky… the £40million figure is wrong” when the heat was on over Euro displays and some fans questioning what they felt was a lack of investment in the team. But the £40m figure that was bandied about in the summer was always a red herring.
