Rangers have revealed that talks are planned with the Scottish and English Football Associations to discuss a move to the Nationwide League.

Talk of an Old Firm move to England has gone quiet in recent days, but the Ibrox club insist the proposals are still very much on.

Commercial director Martin Bain told the Daily Record: ‘‘It has been widely portrayed that the Nationwide League said ‘no’ to the Old Firm last week. That is not the case.

‘‘The only way to make progress is through discussions. Rangers want conciliatory talks - not conflict.’’
