AS CRISIS-HIT Rangers edge towards liquidation, former Aberdeen FC and Ibrox star Jim Bett today warned an SPL without them would be a disaster.

As his former club teeter on the abyss, Bett – who spent three seasons at Ibrox – insisted Rangers must be punished for financial mismanagement.

With the death of Rangers imminent, Bett, who starred for the Ibrox club from 1980 to 1983, said: “Rangers in liquidation will be a disaster not just for the club and its fans, but Scottish football as a whole.”
