The Rangers Football Club Ltd, the company set up by Charles Green as Sevco Scotland when his consortium bought the assets of the liquidation-bound Ibrox club, has announced losses of £18.1million in the 13 months up to June 30, 2013.
Rangers International Football Club plc, the parent company of the club, had previously announced losses of £14.4million for the same period.
The accounts, which were lodged at Companies House, show the club owes the parent company £16.1million.
But that sum will not be recalled for the foreseeable future.
Much of the information in the document was previously known through the plc accounts. Turnover was £17.7million and staff costs were £17.6million, about 10 per cent of which was paid to directors.
The accounts also reveal that severance pay totalling £468,000 had been paid to directors who had left the club since June 30, namely Craig Mather and Brian Stockbridge.
The plc last month announced a loss of £3.7million in the second half of 2013 and that, at the turn of the year it had just £3.5million left of the £22million raised when it was floated on the stock market 13 months earlier.
The directors of the two companies are the same except for Sandy Easdale, who only sits on the club board and not the plc.
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.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
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. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
