RANGERS fans last night claimed they don't know enough about Bill Miller despite his grand promises.
Supporters Assembly spokesman Ross Blyth said: "If he keeps his promises, it would be a fantastic deal for the club. It keeps the history of the club, without liquidation, so it could be great.
"We're pretty excited by it, but realise there is a long way to go.
"This time last year we were excited. We had just won the 54th title and Craig Whyte came in with promises of £5 million a year in the transfer pot. He broke all his promises, so the fans have a few more questions this year. There is more to know about this guy before we get behind him."
The Rangers Supporters Trust, which had been backing the Blue Knights bid, added that fans are wary of the American's plans.
Trust spokesman Mark Dingwall said: "People are wary of Miller's newco, because they see that as essentially the same as liquidation. There's a complete lack of transparency as to his funding or his plans and that is making people highly sceptical."
However, Rangers fans on Twitter appeared to be willing to give the American a chance.
Steven Condie tweeted: "Bill Miller seems to have Rangers' best interests at heart. Give him a chance."
Holly Livingstone posted: "Bill Miller's been named as preferred bidder! Such a huge leap forward!"
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.
