SFA has appoint Lord William Nimmo Smith to chair Rangers inquiry The inquiry team have been handed the same powers as the SFA to investigate the potential breach of their rules and have been asked to report to the board within two weeks. Regan said: "I am delighted Lord Nimmo Smith has agreed to chair the independent inquiry. I am certain the experience contained within the panel will enable us to achieve more clarity on the situation regarding Rangers FC. There will be no further comment on the investigation until it is complete and its findings presented to the board. The SFA launched the independent inquiry after being frustrated in attempts to secure clarity regarding Rangers owner Craig Whyte's previous business experience. The governing body contacted Rangers on Dec 1 to seek clarification after the club confirmed Whyte was previously disqualified as a company director for seven years from 2000. The SFA said its efforts to obtain information on Whyte had been "restricted by the club's solicitors' continued failure to share information in a timely or detailed manner." The SFA Articles of Association on club officials include restrictions on people who have been disqualified as a director "within the previous five years." The inquiry team have also been charged with probing the financial revelations that have emerged in the last week, including the news that Rangers have failed to pay £9 million in tax since Whyte took over last May. Rangers fans have met with former director Paul Murray about a possible takeover of the crisis-hit club. Representatives from the Rangers Supporters Trust, Rangers Supporters Assembly and Rangers Supporters Association met with Murray in Glasgow on Monday night. On Tuesday, the supporters trust released a statement on its website confirming it had met with the Melrose-based Mr Murray, who is a director of Cambridgeshire company Delamore, which grows and sells young plants. The statement read: "Fans representatives stated that they would work with any bidder to ensure the survival of the club but that to be credible any incoming consortium would have to demonstrate that as well as making financial sense their business plan ensured that never again would the club be run on the whim of a single shareholder." The takeover consortium, dubbed the Blue Knights, would need to be "truly representative of the various stakeholders" according to the trust. Murray has registered his interest with administrators Duff and Phelps, who were called into Ibrox last Tuesday. Brian Kennedy, a Scottish businessman who enjoys Sale Sharks rugby club, confirmed he has made "tentative enquiries" about taking over Rangers. Rangers midfielder Matt McKay is set to seal a permanent transfer out of Rangers to South Korean side Busan I'Park, STV understands. Kyle Bartley insists he does not yet know his fate as a Rangers player, despite reports suggesting he will return to Arsenal this week. Bartley said on Twitter: "a lot of people asking me about the newspaper story today.. I don't know myself what the situation is, so please don't believe the media. Former Rangers captain David Weir has returned to Everton as a coach five years after leaving the club for Rangers. Celtic manager Neil Lennon insists a Clydesdale Bank Premier League title win at Ibrox would be "just the way the cookie crumbles," but he would rather clinch the championship at home. The Parkhead men can go 20 points ahead of Rangers with victory over Dunfermline on Wednesday night, and the SPL and Strathclyde Police harbour fears that the title could be clinched by the Hoops against Rangers in Govan on March 25. Since the Light Blues won the league in an ill-tempered match at Celtic Park in 1999 there have been attempts to try to ensure the Old Firm fixture does not decide the destination of the title, but that was scuppered last week when Rangers were deducted 10 points for going into administration. Asked about the possibility of winning the title at the home of their bitter rivals next month, the Celtic manager said: "That's just the way the cookie crumbles. Again, we are not getting ahead of ourselves. We can drop points along the way, Rangers can drop points along the way... But if that's where we are on the 25th of March we will approach the game and try to win it. It's not up to me to make that decision (to move the fixture) but I don't see the reason why the fixture should be changed. It's just the way the season has progressed and maybe coincidental that it could be an opportunity for us to win the title there. I wouldn't be overly pleased if they started changing fixtures for the sake of it. But I would much rather win it here at Celtic Park in front of our own supporters.
