If they refused them entry into the SPL, Scottish football would be cutting its own throat, as a newco Rangers would simply go into the English Premiership, which has been their intention for some time.

Very poor attempt at Bob

What do you think this will this cost Hibs per season?

Dunno, but I hope the SPL chairman consider that Rangers fans have already decided they want to boycott all away games so we wouldnt make any money off them that way anyway.

So he could sell Naismith and McGregor for example and make his money back immediately and own a debt free Rangers, a stadium and a training centre for nowt.

Seems a bit strange to me.

Except that Naismith and McGregor could opt out of the Newco transfer and walk out as free agents.

Colin Hendry on SSN saying that Scottish football is Rangers and Celtic

Ignorant prick

Correct, and consider how much an auction of the entire contents of Ibrox and Murray Park would fetch.

Andy Goram on SSN saying be careful what you wish for. I say vote them out and don't be blackmailed.

We can live without the huns.

This.

I'm sure it was worked out that clubs had to attract an extra 100 fans a game to make up the shortfall from Rangers visits. Obviously that's simplistic as it doesn't take into account a potential change in the TV deal.

Scottish football just has to adapt. If Hibs vote to keep Rangers in I'd find that very hard to take. If Hibs voted against but the Huns stayed in I'd continue to go to home games but would boycott every team who voted then back on.

This is a real chance to put sporting integrity first.

Paul Daniels both are faded institutions whose magic has disappeared.

So Rangers last 2 owners where Green & Whyte and the last player they signed was Celik. You really couldn't make this up.

So will Rangers get to keep:

1. Their current name -- Glasgow Rangers F.C.

2. Their badge

3. Their trophy record/history

I think the more pertinent question is how much would it cost Hibs per season in lost ticket sales if Rangers do get re-admitted

The trophies will end with the club. All the cups won they keep but any new ones starts as one. So really we're a more successful team then then if the form a New-co

They will need a new badge too. They aren't actually called Glasgow Rangers so i'd imagine that may be the new name when reforming.

if new co united get back into the spl which i think they will they need to be heavily punished as a result however i think chairmen of the other smaller clubs will sell the jersey's simply to have the bigots back in i hope they go to divison 3

STV Andy: If the SPL approve a transfer of share to admit a New Rangers then yes, the league titles would transfer over. The same applies to other trophies if the SFA membership is approved.

However, it is worth bearing in mind that the investigation into dual contracts is still ongoing and the SPL have said that stripping titles is a possible sanction.

Yes - this whole affair shows how iffy independence could be - Scottish politicians have wanted nothing but to preserve Rangers....

That's crazy mate. They should lose all rights to the trophies if they fold.

They might find that difficult. Wasn't there something about Celtic fans/financial opportunists buying all legal copyright names when the Huns financial difficulties were first mooted?

I have stated I would not go back to Easter Road if a newco Rangers go straight back into SPL. (I gave up my season 2 years ago before I slit my wrists watching Hibs). I have continued to go on an irregular basis.


However, if Rangers newco do not get elected into SPL I will buy a season ticket to support Hibs and the SPL for taking the moral integrity stance. Would anyone else do the same?


Would make a good poll if anyone can do it.

Somehow, yes I would.

That just doesn't add up? In theory I could start a new club today. Purchase Ibrox and call myself Huns F.C - but I would be a NEWCO with no history. Surely I can't just adopt their history?

Also I wish they would stop hidding behind the term NEWCO - should it not just be NEW CLUB?

[Hibbyradge]

How can Rangers assets e.g. Ibrox, the players and Murray park be sold, if HMRC are due £20m?
