Money men cannot find Whyte cash at Rangers

ADMINISTRATORS battling to save Rangers have yet to find evidence owner Craig Whyte put any of his own money into the club.

Craig Whyte: Undertook to spend £20m on players by 2016.

Despite claims by the embattled venture capitalist that he pumped £33 million of his personal wealth into Ibrox, sources say they cannot detect any such investment.

The development came as director of football Gordon Smith and chief operating officer Ali Russell were made redundant yesterday, with administrators Duff and Phelps also confirming the tax debt run up since Whyte took over in May is around £5m more than previously thought.
