It provides me with a place to contemplate Scottish football.

Why do you exist?

I don't see you providing such a useful service.

Shame about that Rangers fan today. Sure Red will be on the terraces chanting about it tomorrow :p
I can wait for the next game.

Anyway, 'Rangers' fans refuse to acknowledge death these days, what with insisting the club they used to support is still alive and all.

It's a new club, which is why they had to apply to re-enter Scottish football.

If it was really a continuation of the old club, they would still be in the SPL.

Rangers go under
14 June
Rangers’ perilous financial position had been an open secret but there was still shock when, after 140 years of history and a world record 54 league titles, the club was consigned to liquidation in mid-June. The Glasgow giants were subsequently reformed as a new company and granted entry to the Third Division, Scotland’s fourth tier.

And they'll spend a minimum of three years outside the top tier of Scottish football.

And why did this whole thing against them go down? My research on this is close to none, but didn't this happen to them simply because the majority of the league voted them down?

I wasn't aware of the forum rule that stated threads were only to be created if they are of interest to you.
But in all seriousness this thread is to the interest of whom exactły? Understand if its competitive as the others but who's interested in Gary McCoy or Scott Leighton names which I've obviously made up as the whole world haven't got a clue who plays in Scotland. Why didn't this thread start off SPL 2013 winners.....Celtic. 2014 winners.....Celtic. 2015 winners......Celtic. 2016 winners.....zzzzzzz! Is it morning yet.

Because they had been defrauding the tax authorities for years and finally got caught.

They went bust and reformed as a new company/new club.

Because they are a new club, they had to apply to join the Scottish league structure and it was decided that it was only fair that they should start at the bottom like everyone else.

Is Edinburgh I nice city to visit?
Yes.
