It was probably debated earlier, but it actually beggars belief what this chap posts here ...

 

Rangers in liquidation Q&A

By Martin Conaghan BBC Scotland

 

What happens to the club's history?

 

The Rangers Football Club PLC is a public limited company registered in Scotland (company number: SC004276) and was incorporated on 27 May, 1899. When the current company is officially liquidated, all of its corporate business history will come to an end.

 

When this happened to Airdrieonians in 2002, all of the trophies, titles and records associated with the club were discontinued and a new club, Airdrie United FC, took over. Airdrieonians' official history ended in 2002, then Airdrie United's took over.

 

The answer lies principally in the eye of the beholder. Some supporters will view the new Rangers as the same Rangers, while others will feel the old Rangers no longer exist.

 

What IQ does this chap possess? Really? Comparing apples with oranges here and thus stating - in the BBC's name - that Rangers people deluding themselves when thinking that our history will go on?

 

Airdrieonians FC folded much like Third Lanark. Ballantyne whipped up a new club (sic!) called Airdrie United, but got rebuffed for straight re-entry to the SFL. He bought Clydebank FC, relocated it to Airdrie, re-named it Airdrie United.

 

That saw two clubs (!) die in one year, Airdrieonians and Clydebank. Much like Third Lanark.

 

What relevance has this to Rangers FC? No matter who is our PR chap, he should challenge such rubbish wherever it shows its ugly face.
