Rangers directors win power battle

19 December 2013 15:47

The Rangers board have won their power struggle after all five directors were re-elected and their four opponents failed in their bid to be appointed.

The outcome of the votes was announced in a statement to the London Stock Exchange following a stormy annual general meeting at Ibrox.

Finance director Brian Stockbridge received 65.3 per cent backing from shareholders while his four colleagues all secured more than three-quarters of the support.

The four so-called requisitioners - Paul Murray, Malcolm Murray, Alex Wilson and Scott Murdoch - all polled close to 30 per cent of the shareholder strength.
