A Scottish Premier League-appointed commission is set to proceed with its inquiry into alleged undisclosed payments by Rangers.

A hearing will commence on November 13 and will continue if required until November 16, with additional dates of November 20 and 21 also allocated if needed.

The news came on the same day the SPL confirmed no action would be taken against rivals Celtic in relation to Employee Benefit Trusts (EBTs).

The decision to proceed with the inquiry into oldco Rangers was made after all the preliminary issues were considered over two days of initial meetings.

The commission was appointed following initial assessment of EBT transactions to Rangers players from 2000 to 2011 under the previous Ibrox regime, which could breach SPL rules over declaring payments in contracts.

Rangers have already refused to co-operate and did not attend the initial hearings which took place on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Charles Green’s company bought the assets and business of the soon-to-be liquidated oldco Rangers in the summer and secured the club’s Scottish Football Association membership but was denied entry to the SPL.

Green has claimed the SPL has no legal authority over his Third Division club and has threatened legal action if SPL titles are stripped from Rangers.

In a radio interview this week, Green also claimed “more than two” SPL clubs have used EBTs but would “rather not say” who they were.
