He now must submit an offer within 30 days after a written decision by Lord Bannatyne following an earlier hearing at the Court of Session in Edinburgh.

But Press Association Sport has learned the South African-based businessman is determined to fight the ruling.

A source close to the club said: “The court has been notified of the chairman’s intention to seek leave to appeal.
