Rangers chairman Dave King has come under fire over his “priorities” after confirming his attendance at a glamorous Las Vegas supporter convention - but failing to attend that past two Old Firm games.

The North American Rangers Supporters Association (NARSA) confirmed on Monday that Mr King would be joining other high-profile Gers figures for the four-day event in June which sees footie fans get up close and personal with some of their heroes.

However, with the state the Ibrox club is in at the moment, the news of Mr King’s appearance across the pond has left a sour taste in fans’ mouths closer to home.

“Hope you cancel their invitation and tell them to f**k off they should be here sorting their shambles out,” said one Twitter user, as another added: “King and Murray there to offer flannel. 2 f****n chancers.”

Things didn't go much better on NARSA's Facebook page. “I hope king if he turns up gets grilled at AGM about investment,” said one fan on Facebook, while one said: “The q and a will be, ahem interesting.”

Another added: “It’ll be interesting if Mr King turns up and doesn’t bottle it! I’m sure there will be many questions put his way! Let’s hope he has some answers i.e. Where’s all the money you promised Mr King????”

On April 23, defeat to Celtic ended Rangers’ ambitions of Scottish Cup glory with a 2-0 result at Hampden.

Then, on April 29, Celtic absolutely thrashed Rangers at Ibrox with a jaw-dropping 5-1 end result.

Mr King was absent from both matches.

Mr King’s protracted takeover of Rangers was thrown into fresh doubt just last month after an unprecedented legal bid was made trying to force him to buy an additional £11 million of shares in the club.

The Takeover Appeal Board ruled in March that Mr King had “worked in concert” with three others to take control at Ibrox in 2015, also ruling they had secured more than 30 per cent of the voting rights in Rangers.

This meant, under the code of takeovers and mergers, they should make a cash offer of 20p a share to all other shareholders.
