The Law Lords, UEFA, FIFA and The SFA have all said we are the same club...

aka, I get your point but you're stretching credulity there,

The ECA is the sole independent body recognised by UEFA and FIFA as representing clubs at European level...Rangers FC, owned by the Rangers Football Club Plc, transferred all its assets, including its goodwill, to Sevco Ltd (Sevco Ltd later changing its name to the Rangers Football Club Ltd) ...Taking into account that the 'new entity' also acquired the goodwill of the 'old entity', it was held by the ECA executive board that the goodwill, taking into account legal and practical arguments, also included the history of the 'old company'.

[The Rangers International Football Club Plc was then formed as the holding company by the owners The Rangers Football Club Ltd, with the latter becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the former]

My point is we all know you are the same club but it would be unethical for those bodies to say you are.

The Rangers public relations stance is that the club remain the same as ever, history intact, despite the fresh corporate identity created by liquidation. It would be an obvious stance were it not contradicted by insistence from within Ibrox that the club should not be retrospectively punished if found guilty of illegally registering players during use of the now infamous employee benefit trust scheme.

Unethical? That's a cracker hippie. Not sure how you arrived at that.

Club and team is the same thing.
BTW hippie you're showing a fair degree of ignorance of the facts by using the term creative accountancy.

Shows you're debating something that you don't know the facts about.

hippie you haven't a clue. Good night and lay of the shandies.

People jumping on the bandwagon from what the Edinburgh player said about the Hearts/Hibs game.
If it had happened word would have got out within weeks of it happening.

Not saying celtic didn't ease off but the game was won and they defended their lead.
Seen it happen in loads of games. Anyways what about Saturday.
Do you think Griffiths is a doubt or is Brenda at it?
Would be a massive loss for celtic if he does miss the game.

No worries aka. Last pitch I invaded was Wembley

It`s good to hear the views of a neutral Falkirk supporter


... cheers.

It`s tough asking fans to turn up every week when there is no competition and they know they are going to win. When Celtic were in the doldrums they were getting packed houses with fans singing, "Always look on the bright side of life".

I remember the years when Rangers were struggling badly and crowds of 10-15 Thousand turned up.

The big hoose must stay open

Akabula telling it straight

Okay – I give up! I’ve been in denial.

I really have missed Rangers.

I’m really looking forward to the Old Firm game.

I really believe they are the same club.

I really believe it was the holding company that got liquidated.

I really believe they were relegated to the fourth division.

I really believe it was a punishment.

I really believe it was because of bigotry.

I really think it was a huge mistake to have them demoted.

I really think this was terrible for Scottish football and is the reason why the national team haven’t qualified for a tournament since 1998.

I really think Scottish football has been rubbish these past four years and not even worth watching.

I really think Celtic should hand back the titles won in the last four years as they are completely meaningless.

I really believe Rangers would have been neck and neck with us in 2014-15 when we finished 56 points ahead of Motherwell who beat them 6-1 after they finished third in the Championship.

I really believe that it was because we didn’t have Rangers in the league that we only beat Barcelona 2-1 in 2012-13.

I really believe that Rangers were given a three year ban from Europe for going into administration and that Hearts avoided that same ban because someone at UEFA slipped up.

I have no idea what Sevco is – other than maybe an anagram of coves.

I really don’t give a hoot about the Barcelona game or any of the other Champions League games.

I’d much rather have more games against Rangers instead.

Sorry – Old Firm games against Rangers.

I really believe that if we finish 20 points ahead of Rangers this season it will still have been a more competitive season than finishing 15 points ahead of Aberdeen last season – just because it’s Rangers.

I really think the two teams are evenly matched and they will be a close rival in the coming years.

I really don’t think Celtic has an identity of its own and only has any global recognition through being half of the Old Firm with Rangers.

I really think the whole £100m+ debt/EBT episode was nothing major and anyway it allowed Rangers to be competitive with Celtic which is the main thing.

So good to get that off my chest. Now I don’t need to be in denial anymore.

Twitter been great this week. There is no Old Firm claimed one celtic supporter on the Monday.
Tuesday he was tweeting "Has anyone got any spare Old Firm tickets going".

you watching the game at your lodge ackie?

How did you know I had a lodge home at Loch Lomond Kenny?

The softlads caravan will be rockin.

The loon's caravan's permanently rockin' this time of year aka with all those sheep being shawn.

shree wan?  No, that was Oor Kenny in disguise.

Fat Barstewart.
