Former CEO Charles Green Says He Was Worth Double What Rangers Paid Him

Former Scottish League 1 Rangers CEO Charles Green insisted that "he was worth double the money Rangers paid him," according to Alan Marshall of the Scotland DAILY RECORD. The "outspoken Yorkshireman" pocketed £933,000 -- including severance money and bonus -- "for his 10 months at Ibrox." He also "cashed in on the sale of his shares to director Sandy Easdale and Laxey Partners." But Green insists "he was worth much more after helping to relaunch the company that owned the club after it went bust in the summer of 2012." He said, "When I joined Rangers I was the only employee, the only director, the only investor. I was on the same salary as Ally McCoist but Malcolm Murray said that was too much and halved it. For the work I did I should have had double. My salary was £360,000 a year. I didn’t take 12 months’ notice. I agreed with (former director) Ian Hart that I would take less money because I didn’t want to penalize the club" (DAILY RECORD, 3/8).
