Mike Ashley has lodged a court challenge to the Scottish Football Association's decision to approve Dave King's appointment as the chairman of Rangers.
South African-based businessman King was cleared by the governing body to take up the position in May, despite the fact that he had previously been convicted of tax offences.
It was a verdict that Ashley, who is a shareholder of the Scottish Championship club, opposed at the time and he has now demanded that a judicial review is carried out to pass King as a fit and proper person to carry out his responsibilities.
The case will be heard on Thursday, February 4, 2016.
