RANGERS chief executive hopeful Adrian Bevington insists his previous involvement with potential Gers bidder Kyle Fox should be no impediment to landing a major Ibrox role.
The former English FA executive – who we told you is keen to discuss the chief executive role after frontrunner Jim Gillespie withdrew from the running – helped work Ms Fox as she attempted to acquire a stake in the Glasgow giants back in 2022.

Fox had been aiming to secure three-quarters of the club before scaling her offer back to a 25% stake.
But the deal got messy with the Gers taking her to an American court over claims she tried to lure investors into the club without authorisation.
It’s a potential impediment to a deal but Bevington told the Daily Record he has always acted with the best of intentions where the Ibrox side are concerned.
He said: “What I would say is that anything that’s gone on historically has always been done with the best of intentions on my part.
