A JUDGE has set a date for a debate into whether Rangers should pay bill the legal bills of former chief executive Charles Green.
Lawyers acting for the businessman went to the Court of Session in Edinburgh on Tuesday in a bid to force the side into paying Mr Green's expenses.
The entrepreneur, who led a takeover of the Ibrox side in 2012, is one of six men who set to face high court proceedings in the near future in connection to his alleged activities there.
He is expected to stand trial alongside fellow businessmen Craig Whyte, Gary Withey, David Grier, David Whitehouse, Paul Clark and Imran Ahmad.
The venture capitalist, who once played professional football, wants the club to pay the costs of his defence.
Today judge Lord Tyre set a date for a two day hearing next month. He decided that proceedings into the matter will take place at the civil court on November 12 and November 13 2015.
He added: "I am persuaded of the need for a debate."
