Simon Jordan has let rip on the Rangers board and defended Dave King’s decision to “set them on fire” with his recent chairman efforts.
The club’s former chair recently went public with his desires to return to Ibrox to replace John Bennett who stood down for health reasons. That triggered the current interim chairman, John Gilligan, to urge the South African to keep quiet after he called for an EGM to allow fans the chance to decide.though, reckons King was well within his rights to go the public route with his criticisms as well as his decision to call out the off-field issues plaguing Gers from the top down. And the talkSPORT host believes there’s some justification for King taking shots at the board and looking for change as he took aim at “no leader” Gilligan and questioned the board members himself.Well there sounds a leader, that was inspiring,” Jordan said sarcastically after hearing a clip of Gilligan’s response to King. “Who’s Gilligan to define what a proper shareholder is? He’s (King) the biggest individual shareholder, he has 15 percent of the business – he can operate how he feels.
