Hide AdBill Miller commented: “After speaking with the administrators today, I understand that no other bidders have stepped up to offer to save Rangers. As I stated on Friday, if there were no other bids by close of business Monday, I would begin the process to acquire Rangers according to the plan I outlined on Friday.
“To clarify earlier statements in the press, I did not ask for more time to move forward.
“However, at the request of the administrators, I will wait to enter into exclusivity in order to give The Blue Knights/Ticketus more time to put an alternative offer on the table for the administrators to evaluate.
“I will leave it to Duff & Phelps to determine when they want to identify their preferred bidder.
“Until then, I am moving forward with my process and continuing my discussions with all related parties. I can confirm that I did have confidential conversations with the SFA and PFA Scotland representatives. Finally, I will be having discussions with Ally McCoist later to discuss his recommendations regarding the players.”
