Charles Green is getting a 'bargain' with Rangers, says David Low "I know Charles because he and I share a City advisor and he knew about my part in Fergus's takeover," he said. I met him and he spoke about his plans but my only advice to him was that he should make sure that he gets some high-profile Rangers fans with money on board. McCann stated from his earliest involvement that he would leave the club after a five-year period and, following a successful share flotation, he relocated to Boston with a £30 million profit on his investment. Low doesn't anticipate that level of success for Green but remains confident that the Yorkshireman can make money on this transaction. "Due to the crimes committed by others before him, it looks as though Rangers won't be able to buy players for the next year," he said. That's not Green's fault, although it will save him and his consortium money. He's also not to blame for the fact that many of the highest-paid players may decide to leave, which will also reduce the wage bill. Due to the actions of the previous owners there will also be no European income so what Green needs to do is prove that he's capable of running Rangers cheaply until the sanctions imposed on them no longer apply. Basically, circumstances will force Rangers to do what they should have been doing years ago; invest properly in their youth system and scouting network. At the same time money will need to be spent on essential renovation work at the stadium and at the training complex. Consequently, Low counsels patience among the Rangers fans support. "Green will be running a straitjacketed Rangers and Fergus found himself in the same position when he took over," he said. As well as dealing with the debt he had to comply with the Taylor Report, which meant rebuilding Celtic Park and putting 60,000 seats in. Because of the time it took to pay for all that it took a while before there was money available to strengthen the squad to championship level. Fortunately, the Celtic fans bought into what Fergus was doing and turned up in their numbers. As long as the Rangers punters understand the situation and continue to follow their team then they should be back in contention for the title within the next three-five years.
