ian1964 10,450 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 CELTIC fans have taken to Twitter to vent their outrage over a question on ITV's The Chase. Host of the primetime quiz show, Bradley Walsh, asked a contestant: "Which Scottish club was triple relegated in 2012?" One fan addressed the show's official Twitter account with the message: "There was NO triple relegation for the club formerly known as Glasgow Rangers. They were liquidated. They ceased to exist.

Another said: "FYI Rangers were not triple relegated... They went bust and started life as a new club in the lowest league." Another user wrote: "A club 'triple relegated in Scotland in 2012?' The players have a right to call that lie out". One Rangers fan who appreciated the show's reference tweeted: "We welcome the chase", a motto used by some Light Blues fans, drawn from a quote by the second manager of Rangers, Bill Struth. He said of the young club: "Let the others come after us, we welcome the chase." The answer provided by the show was Rangers FC, which was liquidated and relegated following a crisis in the club's finances.

Some continue to refer to the Ibrox side as Sevco - the name of the company which bought the club's assets in 2012. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/18754722.chase-celtic-fans-outraged-rangers-relegation-question/ 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,241 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Not even a single relegation. Expulsion from the SPL and admission to the SPFL at level three. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,287 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Again marks them out as the slightly unhinged that they are. The question as such is stupid enough though, obviously whipped up by a ****** itself. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANGERRAB 3,299 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 All the football authorities websites show Rangers history from 1872 to present day. By that I mean SFA, SPFL and UEFA Why do these people have great difficulty in accepting this ? Back in 2012 the SFA could have stopped the transfer from oldco to newco but they didn’t. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
