Craig Whyte has claimed he introduced Charles Green to Duff and Phelps as the administrators searched for a buyer for Rangers.
The former Rangers owner made the claim in a wide-ranging interview with BBC Scotland's Chris McLaughlin.
He also claimed Duff and Phelps knew of the controversial Ticketus deal before the purchase of the club was complete.
Mr Whyte said the SPL knew in October 2011 that Rangers "had no money" and were heading for administration.
Full details of the interview, and reaction to it, will be on the BBC Scotland news website later and on Reporting Scotland at 18:30.
There will be further analysis and discussion on Newsnight Scotland at 23:00 on BBC2 Scotland.

tldr or don't understand:
Whyte had rushed to court to get D&P appointed administrators, rather than HRMC appointed ones. D&P, by all accounts, run the worst administration in history, then sell the assets at a seriously undervalued price to Charles Green, who we now know was introduced to D&P by Craig Whyte himself, having said he had never met Craig Whyte. All this as Green announces plans to float the new Rangers on the stock market.
I'm sure it's all above board!
My prediction: New Rangers (2012) go into administration by the end of the season
