WhiteRoseKillie Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 What do you mean?As rangers died, they haven't come "back" anywhere. They never played in the lower divisions either - that was a "journey" undertaken by a Tribute Act who have given the vast majority of Scottish fans more enjoyment in their short life than their predecessors did over many decades before their sad (no sniggering at the back, now!) demise. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown Job Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Never forget Rangers have been granted a conditional Scottish FA membership, which will allow Sunday's Ramsdens Cup tie with Brechin City to go ahead. The relaunched Ibrox club have been trying to obtain the old Rangers' licence to play after the latter headed for liquidation. Dundee have replaced the old Rangers in the SPL after the SFL agreed to place the new Ibrox team in Division Three. But the new Rangers needed membership to play any competitive matches in Scotland and negotiations over inheriting the old club's licence were protracted. The club agreed to incur punishments handed to the old club over disrepute charges, including a year-long transfer ban. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not the most varied of cup winners for a while? Then Rodgers came in and fucked it up. Freakshow arsehole that he is. Was superb County winning league Cup, never forget that!! Probably never happen again, unless they go bust again?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to “punish” The non OF clubs shouldn’t have allowed Sevco into the league. Celtic would then have died a slow death and the rest of Scottish football would have thrived without the vile OF fans. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was something to punish though, wasn't there? - The rebirth or whatever you want to call it. One club (rumoured to be Stranraer) did vote not to admit them at all. Impressive though that was, excluding them altogether, never looked particularly realistic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gudge1903 Posted February 14, 2022 Author Share Posted February 14, 2022 Still happens Ronaldo. Check out their games against AFC this year. Ibrox game after Walter (we wish the new club every success) Smith died (also) got to pick their own ref and got bailed oot big time. Have I mentioned Aberdeen haven't had a pen at Ibrox in over 25 years against either rangers clubs?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 The vote was for which club was to be admitted. Sevco were one of the applicants. I believe Cove Rangers and Edinburgh City also applied. Think Gala Fairydean did too, but can’t recall the full list. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
