SIR David Murray has denied cheating took place during his time in charge of Rangers after an inquiry got under way into alleged undisclosed payments to players and staff.

The former Rangers chairman accused the Scottish Premier League, which appointed an independent commission last week to probe the claims, of attempting to "retrospectively rewrite laws to incorporate items not previously covered".

The probe will determine whether the club breached SPL rules in relation to Employee Benefit Trust (EBT) payments and arrangements for players between 2001 and 2010.
