Rangers appoint new director to oversee 'investment committee'

Rangers International Football Club plc have appointed a new director to oversee an "investment committee".

Norman Crighton’s appointment as a non-executive director was announced to the London Stock Exchange on Thursday.

The latest directorial post comes after David Somers was named interim chairman at Ibrox last week.

It comes around a month before the company’s first annual general meeting where opposition shareholders, led by ex-chairman Malcolm Murray and former oldoc director Paul Murray, will seek appointment to the board.

Mr Crighton is now the fourth board member at Rangers, alongside Mr Somers, finance director Brian Stockbridge and non-executive director James Easdale.

It follows on from a large turnaround in board members in the past year as rebel shareholders raised concerns over the running of Rangers International, which posted an operating loss of £14.3m earlier this year.

Rangers stated that Mr Crighton will "chair a new Investment committee of the board whose terms of reference will include overseeing capital projects."

His background has seen him "involved in most aspects of investment banking during the course of his 23 year career, including corporate finance, research and market-making, leading to institutional investment management", Rangers International stated to the stock exchange.

Mr Crighton, who does not currently hold any shares in Rangers International, was a senior vice president at financial management firm Merrill Lynch between 1994 and 1999, Rangers said, while he has non-executive roles at several publicly listed companies including environmental investor Trading Emissions PLC and technology investment firm Private Equity Investor PLC.

He was appointed to Private Equity Investor to replace non-executive director Colin Kingsnorth, who founded and runs the Isle of Man hedge fund Laxey Partners Limited, which owns a 6.53% stake in Rangers. Laxey has previously indicated it would vote in line with the fans when it came to the annual general meeting appointments.

In the stock exchange announcement, Rangers confirmed the Dundee-born economics graduate would have to stand for re-appointment at the annual general meeting on December 19, alongside all other directors.

Get your wallets oot, you have a new begging bowl manager in post.

Here's the question, Dhensest. Perhaps you'll do better than the plastic and diddy heroine - Ms HND herself.

@AngelaHaggerty I heard "Orange b*****d" being aimed at the Ajax manager. Is there a culture of anti-Dutch racism? Or anti-'somethingelse'?

C'mon, chaps and chapesses. It's been more than a week now. Is nobody going to step in and stop him making a tw@t of himself?

(Bendarroch, there's a clue in my post, and a bigger one from Denbhoy last night.)

:lol:

"Overseeing capital projects" ???

Like turning assets that don't do a lot into cash?

Sale and leaseback of Ibrox? Housing development at Murray Park? :unsure:

Consequences could be horrific, if you are a Rangers fan. :thumbsdown

Anybody got any ideas how much they've spent on Club Ties this last couple of years? :lol:

Ive asked a few times now but you seem intent on ignoring me (fair enough), indeed it would appear you are intent on ignoring anyone who doesnt have an affiliation with celtic.

However perhaps it would be of some benefit to you to explain where your hatred comes from? Was it a single event or a series of events. Explain.

Your wilful attempts to misunderstand or ignore the intense hatred between Celtic and Rangers means your launchpad for attack is built on a false premise. If you can't understand this simple axiom we can't enter into any dialogue, you'll need to go back to implying Rangers fans are all the same person.

He could easily have said something like "We'll fight on", "We won't stop" or even "No let up". However, its clear he was trying to play to the lowest common denominator in your fan base.

It's clear to all. Why use a phrase that you know to have sectarian connotations when addressing a group of Sevconians?

A.Because you're appealing to a bunch of bigots and when in Rome.

Even Bendy knows this, he's just flailing around like a deranged lunatic because he can't bring himself to admit he has got this horribly, horribly, wrong. Nobody's impressed.

Sometimes fans really get the club they deserve. Imagine the few Bears who actually want nothing to with this dark ages bigoted nonsense, with expert dog whistler like Malcolm Murray and enablers like Bendy around, they've got no chance. :(

Tick, tock.

"investment committee". If there's one thing they've mastered in Govan it's Orwellian doublespeak. :lol:

I thought all the money earmarked for capital projects had been spunked on things like The Corpulent One's salary and Sir Charles of Normandy's new chateaux? :unsure:

Oh you're just a sheep? No independence of thought? May as well be one person then.

WKR wades in for the plastics. No surprise anywhere at all.

Will you be the one to answer the question that Haggerty would not - were the 'orange b*****ds' chants from 'RA bhoeys in Amsterdam anti-Dutch racism or anti-something else?

Here's a clue for you - the question was posed to Haggerty by an STV journalist - not the fantasy figure you thought Dhensest's hopeful guess referred to.

Has to be something else: Dutch is not a race.

ETA. Why is this SO important to you? Do you think some celtic fans being bigots makes it all right that some sevco fans are bigots?
