The South-African based businessman wants back in and the club's record goalscorer isn't against it

Upbeat Ally McCoist believes Dave King is the man to help fix Rangers but the Ibrox legend fears the club he loves are in a "state" after John Bennett's exit.

The 60-year-old wished the departing chairman well and reckons King fits the criteria to give the Ibrox side a jolt. The former chairman – who was in charge between 2015 and 2020 – has been making his voice heard in recent months and now has stated his intention to return after Bennett's exit. King is convinced Rangers need new leadership with a long-term plan and he is proposing he steers the ship for the first two years of that.

Speaking on talkSPORT in the wake of King's big announcement, McCoist said: "We've got to do something. We have to, the first thing I would like to do is echo the views and wish John Bennett a return to full health. He is a good man and that is the most important thing. At this moment in time, we have no chairman, James Bisgrove left for Saudi Arabia, you have got to say, the club is in a state, it is in a state.

But King and McCoist have differing views over external investment. The former Rangers chairman is utterly convinced those with deep pockets would welcome his push to come back, however, McCoist retains a healthy dose of skepticism that rich benefactors are willing to plough money into the Ibrox club.

He added: "Dave King has come in before, and grabbed the club by the scruff of the neck, shook it around, and turned it around. But can he do it again? At this moment in time, I think he is probably our best option. We are not going to get any Arab Sheikh coming over, I don't see it happening. From where I am sitting, the best option would be to go with another tried and tested, He has been there before and had success.
