They don't, they're just very relaxed about the idea of The Rangers assuming title to Deidco's honours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaput. Gone Cease to exist Cant have an sfa membership if you are no longer a football club. 1873-2012. Those that say there the same club are the same people that believe in the boogeyman, santa and the tooth fairy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philfigo Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Absolutely love winding them up about it which football is all about banter etc. Does the same not apply to Celtic, Hibs and possibley more if you really looked into companys house files. Many clubs have had other Ltd company's take over the footballing assets like stadiums naming rights, association memberships and players. I think this is why many in the legal sections don't agree about a new club. The club consists of the above - stadium, naming rights, associations memberships and players. A Ltd company can come along and buy the rights to the above and continue as normal. Whether the holding company is liquidated doesn't really matter as the club remains intact just as there would still be a club if no body was willing to buy the footballing rights the club would continue in a lower league semi pro leagues as the same name etc it has always had. Changing of company's who own the clubs doesn't constitue a new club. Just like us with Bidco purchasing our footballing rights for so many pence in the pound. Sevco just bought the footballing rights without paying anything back to anyone that was in debt but they still bought the footballing rights same as we did. Does this matter one bit to football fans who love to use anything as banter 100% not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does nobody else have the brass neck to even try it. Just say it's the same club, trophies and history are all ours and nothing has changed. You need friends in the football and wider establishment. Would/could another Scottish football club go into liquidation, have its assets sold for a relatively low amount to a consortium which then formed a phoenix club, which the football authorities then tried to shoe-horn - firstly the top tier, then the second tier - and then finally resort to subverting their own rules on an application for League membership (the need for three years’ accounts) and permit admission to the bottom tier? And then, with the connivance of the Scottish football authorities, comes the final insult: the transfer of the honours of a liquidated club… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregzy2k7 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 They are a very unlikable bunch in general tbh, There are the odd few that are decent fans but most are just absolute ars3holes to a man, Would love nothing more than us to stick one up them in the Semi final, P.s They absolutely did let their club die, Always remember, walking away is the rangers way.

I think we've gifted them enough, 3 League wins, which they won, dubiously, a LC final, which they won, dubiously and gubbed celtic home and away Ripping th p15h if they want the SC Final berth too, don't you think? Our players better all be right up for this! ❤️❤️G❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
