Very lazy from the BBC, stating that Rangers were "demoted". As I understood it they ceased to exist and another club got to start a few leagues higher than is normal simply because it had a similar name and played at the same stadium.

What I understand cannot be a lie. I may be mistaken, of course. But I think legally it is quite clear that the 'Rangers' that was formed in 1872 does not exist anymore.

When a company is liquidated its business activities cease to exist. The business of Rangers FC Plc was football. When Rangers FC Plc was wound up, so were the football activities of Rangers FC Plc i.e. the football club and associated merchandising etc. The BBC recognised this fact when they observed that “The Rangers Football Club PLC is a public limited company registered in Scotland (company number: SC004276) and was incorporated on 27 May, 1899. When the current company is officially liquidated, all of its corporate business history will come to an end.” https://scotslawthoughts.wordpress....ers-fc-guest-post-by-johnbhoy/comment-page-1/
What makes you think that opinion is "lies and bull sh1t"?

Loyalism is a choice unlike all the options covered by the hate speech laws. You can't change the colour of your skin but you can choose not to be a bigoted sectarian Sevco-following farkwit.

Here to help :thumbsup:

Are you saying religion is not a choice ?

You say legally it is quite clear Rangers that formed in 1872 do not exist , To be fair legally no football club exists , I believe the Company that runs the club only exists as a legal entity and the club/business is an asset of that company .

To be honest ,what does it matter , one side will believe one thing , the other side another.
If you go onto the Rangers shares page you will find like minded folk , both Celtic and Rangers who have debated this for 2 years on a daily basis .:wacko:

Was there ever any chat about them going all the way down to the South of Scotland League? I don't remember (and I doubt it would have been more than wishful thinking by Sellick), plus I don't think the 'pyramid' was properly in place until this season.

I wonder if say Hibs went bankrupt where they would start from now though ?

The new team started in Division Three - rather higher than any other new team might have expected to start.

Yeah I'm sure I'd have remembered. A move like that would have been mental, even for the clowns that run the game.

2nd division was the fair way I thought , I for one did not want special treatment and paying of old companies football debt was also fair , the signing ban was a bit silly though .
