Glasgow Rangers enter Administration

[Buzzo]

You're taking so much pleasure from all this, it's almost unseemly.

I cannot believe more isn't being made from this story. Top level corruption, Tax evasion and cheating from a footballing dynasty. Its incredible.


(yes I can barely hide my glee)

They need 7 of the other 11 SPL teams to back them in the vote if they are to stay in the SPL

I don't think they are going to get them. The only ace up the Sevco 5088 FC sleeve is the extensive lobbying SKY will be doing to ensure that Sevco 5088 FC are allowed into the SPL.

The should have ALL their trophies and titles stripped. After all the club that won them is gone now. This is a new football club and as such should be starting at the foot of scottish football.

Well the Newco will start with zero trophies or history.

However the legacy of Rangers deserves to be protected, it was a once proud club not always embroiled in scandal. The Newco just has to face up to its punishment and admit the wrongdoings and corruption of the previous regime with a touch more humility than they have been showing so far.

To be honest As much as the people connected to the club deserve this i feel sorry for the club itself and the legacy that has been destroyed.

The only way this would be funny is if it happened to the bitters.

That's only only fair way, there are loads of other clubs that would love to be handed a place in the SPL

Yeah, but it's Scotland so no one's that bothered. Down here we all assume you're all still going about wearing deep-fried claymores and threatening people with sporrans, smashed out of your skulls on shortbread.

The rest of the clubs must lose out on a bit of money if Rangers away support aren't turning up 4 times a season.

[Bender]

Rangers owner Charles Green is putting together an *emergency plan to move the Glasgow giants to ENGLAND as he battles for the club’s future.

Green has bought the Ibrox outfit and is taking them out of administration, hoping to persuade Ally McCoist to stay on as manager.

But there are huge doubts about whether they will play in the SPL next season, or be forced to drop to the fourth level.

And insiders close to the Yorkshireman’s camp reveal that Green is lining up an *astonishing bid to buy a lower-division club in England and take their place in the Football League instead.

The rest of the clubs must lose out on a bit of money if Rangers away support aren't turning up 4 times a season.

Given that the league goes into a split it would be only a max of 2 times for 5 teams.

There is also an argument that a more competitive league would also result in increased gate revenue for the other clubs, not that that should be a deciding factor. They should be punished because they have cheated, and not let off because the other clubs would lose out.
