9 burning Rangers AGM issues from beleaguered boss to financial fears and chairman latest after Offord bombshell

Pantomime season is in full swing and in the eyes of the Rangers fans the villains will take to the stage at Glasgow's Clyde Auditorium on Thursday.The boardroom baddies will line up for the annual shareholders gathering and on the banks of the River Clyde, the waters are expected to be more than a little choppy for the Ibrox hierarchy.Rangers held the meeting in their own New Edmiston House last year but it proved too small with punters packed in like sardines and have switched back to the 3000-seater venue.
