Dave King earns Rangers hero's backing over EGM calls as frustrating element identified
The Rangers board should listen to Dave King as change is exactly what they need, says Craig Moore.
The former Gers chairman, who still owns a 15 per cent stake in the club, has been vocal in his criticism of the board. He insists he should be a allowed to return as chairman in the short term to tide things over and allow for a new man to come in to a more stable environment.
King urged the board to call an EGM but the man who currently holds the position temporarily, John Gilligan, responded yesterday and said that was "unrealistic" because there was no appetite for change. But former Ibrox defender Moore says they should think again because a change is required.

He told GO Radio: "I can understand Dave King's frustration. He's the major shareholder with 15 per cent but he doesn't have any say or influence.
"John Gilligan says an EGM only comes about when people want change. That for me, is exactly what Rangers need. As the largest shareholder, when you can't actually find a way to get to the table and have any kind of discussion must be really, really frustrating.
"There needs to be massive investment. But at the same time, investors are looking for a return. When you look at Rangers in recent seasons and the current board, obviously their intentions are in the right place, but their decisions over the last three seasons, there's been more poor decisions than positive decisions."
