Rank's primary executive, Henry Birch, is a previous head of William Hill's online division.
+
Under UK takeover rules, the firms have till 21 August to either make a firm deal or leave.

Since then, rival betting companies Ladbrokes and [Gala Coral](https://dev.neos.epss.ucla.edu/wiki/index.php?title=User:CarrolSpeight0) have actually concurred a ₤ 2.3 bn merger which received initial regulator approval in May.
