Douglas Park says the Rangers will pay for an independent investigation into the SPFL themselves if voted on at EGM Tuesday.
The president of Ibrox has told clubs across the country that they will pay the bill if he gets the go-ahead.
Park’s offer will throw a cat among the pigeons after SPFL bosses warned member clubs that accepting Gers’ resolution would be a costly exercise.
They approved their own investigation through Deloitte, which concluded that there was no crime by CEO Neil Doncaster, President Murdoch MacLennan, or legal adviser Rod McKenzie. But Park said: “Cost should never be a barrier to good governance.

“If our resolution passes, we will be willing to finance the costs of an independent investigation.”
The SPFL responded to the Rangers’ evidence file questioning its conduct and processes, with a series of indictments against the club, Park and managing director Stewart Robertson, who is on the SPFL board. They alleged that Park threatened Doncaster, but the Ibrox chief dismissed that claim as a lie and also endorsed Robertson, who had been accused of failing to do his duty.
Park said: “This is the first time I remember being accused of making a threat. It is offensive, rude and downright wrong. Anyone who knows me will know it is a fabrication.
“(In Stewart’s terms) I find this intriguing and insulting. Stewart has been first class in all of this. ”
Park is encouraged by the level of support his record has had from the clubs.
He said: “There is an apparent culture of fear as we can see from the number of clubs that privately seem to have a problem with some
of the things that we proposed and those that were prepared to speak in public.
“I understand that because it looks at the way we’ve been treated.”
