For some reason, people have a very low opinion of Gers owner Dave King. Say what you want about him, he is a dreamer and a grafter. If you need proof that the billionaire is not afraid of a day’s hard graft, then look no further than his new role with fast food giant, KFC. The Ibrox chief has signed up for 6-night shifts a week until next season kicks off and he can get his manager enough cash to finally topple that house of cards across the city.
Based on Renfield Street, the businessman jumped right in at the deep end with the busy drive-thru service. Some customers did do a double take when the South African took their order but they could not quite fathom where they recognised his loveable face from. Gers fans are thrilled with their chairman’s latest gesture and they have vowed never to eat any other kind of take away food again.
It is understood King worked through his lunch break to write a Rangers statement on a KFC napkin. With his club haemorrhaging 15 million a year it is not clear what his rate of pay is but hats off to the man for putting the hard yards in. Over to you Dermot Desmond.
