Board orders investigation into Charles Green

Rangers are to commission an independent probe into the behaviour of chief executive Charles Green and commercial director Imran Ahmad. It follows allegations about the pair's links with former owner Craig Whyte and Green's recent public statements. Rangers' board held a special meeting ahead of the home game against Clyde to consider the matter. A statement that followed said Green had apologised for an offensive remark made about Ahmad in a press interview. It had already led the Scottish FA to charge the chief executive for bringing the game into disrepute by making a comment considered to be "of an offensive and racist nature".
