Rangers to officially change name after takeover by US consortium completed
After the club were taken over by a US led consortium, Rangers are set to undergo a name-change, in a move which is provoking a lot of curiosity The parent company of Rangers FC is looking to rebrand following their acquisition of the club. The takeover of the Scottish giants by the US led consortium was officially completed on May 30. The takeover group, that is led by healthcare tycoon Andrew Cavenagh, purchased a 51 per cent controlling stake at the Glasgow giants, after the Scottish FA approved the move. The new owners are overseeing a transition from a public to a private company, pending shareholder approval later this month. Since November 2012, the Ibrox team has been known as 'The Rangers International Football Club PLC', but will now trade under the name 'Rangers International Football Club Limited'. This change ushers in a new era under chairman Cavenagh and 49ers enterprises, led by vice-chairman Paraag Marathe. The proposed shift will be put to a vote at the club's forthcoming Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM), set for June 23 at Glasgow's Doubletree Hilton. To pass, the name change requires a 75 per cent approval rate. Despite their PLC status, Rangers were not publicly listed on the stock exchange. The transition to an LTD ensures shares cannot be offered to the public, providing an additional level of control for the new leadership, reports the Daily Record. The EGM will cover the move to the LTD company, informing shareholders about what they are voting on. Friday's big announcement covered the ordinary resolutions. This includes the allotment of nominal shares, a price that has been set in recent years for directors investing in Ibrox. The club is entering a new era with nine appointments to the revamped board, spearheaded by Cavenagh and Marathe. Patrick Stewart, Eugene Schneur, Andrew Clayton, Mark Taber, Fraser Thornton, John Halsted and George Taylor are the other seven who will play pivotal roles. In an open letter to the Rangers supporters, Cavenagh and Marathe said: "We are proud to be entering a new chapter for this extraordinary club. This moment is the result of months of thoughtful discussions with club leadership and our shared confidence in Rangers' success going forward. "To that end we'd like to tell you a bit about our thinking. Simply put - our goal is to win trophies in Scotland and be able to compete at a high level in Europe, while laying a foundation of financial sustainability for the future. "As our first step, we are investing fresh capital into Rangers, which will be strategically deployed on and off the pitch. While we recognise the importance of resources, we believe that thoughtful, disciplined investment, guided by a clear strategy, is the path to enduring success. "Every decision, whether sporting or business, will be made with the club's long-term success and sustainability in mind."

Bid to build 95 new homes in Croft given go ahead
Eleven acres (110, 000sq m) of fields south of the village of Croft in Leicestershire have been earmarked for 95 new homes, despite objections from residents. Estate agent Savills applied to Blaby District Council on behalf of developer Bellway Homes for outline planning permission to construct the new homes. The council received 18 objections to the plan, with concerns raised about the impact the extra homes would have on traffic in the small village, local services, wildlife and the environment. The authority has granted permission for the homes to built in principle, but the developer will need to submit more detailed plans to the council before any construction work can start. Agricultural land which will be lost to make way for the new homes is not considered high enough quality to block the application, the council said. The developer will be asked to make payments of more than £260,000 to support local services which will be put under extra pressure by the new homes. The contributions include £167,122 towards a new sports pitch, £73,568 to support GP services, £9,456 towards secondary schools, £2,267 towards refuse collection and £5,064 for the police.

Scotland's 12 best steaks maturing in Portlethen
About 150 beef producers across Scotland entered the latest Kepak McIntosh Donald-Tesco steak competition. Judge Scott Jarron chose his 12 favourite cuts of meat at Kepak McIntosh Donald's site at Portlethen. These will be cooked and judged for a final time on the Tesco stand at next month's Royal Highland Show in Edinburgh. Scott is the co-owner of Broughty Ferry butchers Scott Brothers. He was helped in his difficult task of whittling the entries down to just 12 steaks by his son, Thomas. Alan Brown, primary operations director, Kepak McIntosh Donald, described the initial entries as a 'fabulous show of steaks'. This made the judging process 'very hard,' he said, adding: 'It was an excellent show of quality.' Thanking all participants and Kepak McIntosh Donald's 'loyal and dedicated' suppliers of 'top-class' beef and lamb, Mr Brown said the business had enjoyed 'excellent' growth over the past few years. Kepak Group processes hundreds of thousands of cattle annually across its UK and Irish operations. Its McIntosh Donald business, based in Portlethen, Aberdeenshire, is the largest beef and lamb processor in Scotland. Kepak McIntosh Donald is on track for processing around 100,000 cattle this year. Tesco is one of the firm's key customers and the steak competition partnership dates back to the late 1990s. Last year's title title was awarded jointly to a pair of Aberdeenshire producers. The Grubb family of Mountpleasant, Ardallie, Mintlaw, shared the top prize with John and Brian Troup, from Southbank Farm, Skene, Westhill. The final round of judging for this year's competition will take place on Friday June 20. Kepak McIntosh Donald procurement manager Ewan Hutcheson explained that by then the 12 competing steaks will each have completed a 30-day maturation process. There are four finalists from Aberdeen-Angus cattle, with eight from continental breeds. Messrs I&A Beaton, East Quartains, Banchory (A-A cross heifer, 353.2kg, R4L, 21 months and 24 days); E Buchan, Glenisla, Torphins (A-A cross stot, 320.8kg, R4L, 23 months and 12 days); Grubb Brothers, Moutpleasant, Ardallie, Mintlaw (A-A cross heifer, 312.1kg, R4L 13 months and 24 days); W Barr & Co, Thirlestane Farm, Lauder (A-A cross heifer, 276.2kg, R4L, 20 months and 18 days).
