Well somethings never change, pretty much no creativity

But given all that has happened and the fact there has been no pre season friendlys a win is a win

Did you note how the Brechin team had there extra time talk under shelter but coisty an the team stood in the pitch under peeing rain

Can I check - has the team got an officially recognised team name yet?

The Rangers.

I'm pretty sure everywhere I have seen has them reported as 'Rangers FC' still...

I note the BBC are calling them New Rangers

Whty did they rebrade as The Rangers, an dnot Glasgow Rangers, most people already know them as Glasgow Rangers anyway?

I'm not sure they have rebranded them as The Rangers.

According to Wikipedia (not a 100% source obviously), apparently they are still named Rangers F.C.

I dont think anyone called them Glasgow Rangers.

Signed Dean Shiels on a 4 year contract.

Most new papers , sports broadcasters, fans. I even brought it up on the old 606 does it annoy you when they are refered to Glasgow Rangers and Glasgow Celtic, and a lot of Rangers fans didn't even know that they were just called Rangers.

I've not got a clue what they're called although I have seen them called a few different names over the past few days as people have noted.

They are officially called The Rangers FC

Source?

Not that I don't believe you, it's just I've been looking everywhere for the actual name and can't find any agreement.

Club Statement. OFFICIAL name of the company that owns Rangers is now The Rangers Football Club Limited

Yep the name has been changed and officially announced today.

Because it's not the same club.

Everyone uses hashtags now...

Think every club should just liquidate and shed their debt and start again as the same club. Wonder why they are not? Because they wont be the same club.

#yaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwnnnnnn

That's better. Keep up with the times old man!

You can change the club, but some things never change...

That's not a yawn at the debate by the way that's a yawn at how tiresome it is trying to get across the FACT that a Club and a Company are 2 separate entities which may or may not be linked. It's not really a difficult concept to grasp for those not blinded by bitterness.

Nice of you to acknowledge my maturity as well, you might grow up one day too

Rangers where liquidated, that's why they where ejected from the SPL, a Newco Rangers where formed and subsequently voted into the Scottish Football League Division 3, clubs aren't demoted 4 divisions for changing a 'holding company'

Regardless of what Rangers fans (Oldco and Newco) want to promote, the fact of the matter is they where wound up and a new entity was formed

I should also say that I can totally understand fans of the Newco RFC trying to convine themselves and other people that the club didn't die, its denial which is common when something of great importance to you ends

Then why do fans of other clubs want Rangers stripped of titles if they're dead?

If Old Rangers is stripped of titles, other clubs will assume those titles I guess. If Florence Griffith-Joyner (who is dead) is ever found out to be the cheat that most people think she was, won't all her gold medals go to the runner ups?

#HEEL wrote:Then why do fans of other clubs want Rangers stripped of titles if they're dead?

Because it is only fair. Lance Armstrong is not competing but if he is found guilty he will get titles stripped. Same goes for Old Rangers.

Jambos are back where they belong!!

Livingstone had a snowman in the Comunities Cup.

RANGERS have completed the double signing of Francisco Sandaza and Emilson Cribari today.

Sandaza has long been linked with the club and finally put pen to paper on a three year deal today.

The Spanish striker is eligible to feature in tonight's clash with East Fife at Ibrox and is waiting to see what level of involvement Ally McCoist will give him.

Brazilian defender Emilson had trained with McCoist's squad on Monday after jetting in to Scotland at the weekend.

And the former Lazio and Udinese man has agreed a two-year deal with the 54 times Scottish champions.

We will have the first reaction from both players right here on rangers.co.uk soon.

They seem to be throwing about a fair bit of money for a 3rd division club. Will they ever learn?

I heard rangers have only sold 6000 season tickets. Does anyone have any real figures?

KEVIN KYLE has made it a hat-trick of signings for Ally McCoist today as he followed Emilson Cribari and Fran Sandaza in joining the Gers.

The former Hearts man agreed a deal today after spending time training with McCoist's squad recently.

31-year-old Kyle has signed a one year contract after a little over a week as part of the Rangers squad at Murray Park.

The striker is hopeful his registration will be completed in time for him to go straight in to the squad for tonight's match with East Fife at Ibrox.

Cheers Heel.

Looks a bit like The Rangers are going to be the Doncaster of Scottish football.
Signing players no one else wants, give them a chance to showcase and sell them on. Trouble is only the agents make money on those deals.

38,000 at Ibrokes last night for the tussle with East Fife.
Quite a few EPL clubs would be happy with that number.

Great show of support, would have brought in a few dollars.

Ally McCoist confirmed Mike Ashley is ready to buy a stake in Rangers

Would this be allowed if he already owns Newcastle?

As I have long suspected Newcastle and Carlisle are to apply to join the SPL.

Yeah, the owners of Udinese also own Watford.

It's only 10% so not big enough to come into play.

Thought there was hundreds of thousands of orcs Rangers fans?

Interestingly the NHS Trust I work in is having trouble with a bus company called Countryliner who supply a transport service for staff and patients. Recently we had to charge staff and patients for the service because the price increase went up on the contract.

We had a meeting with them recently to find out why since increasing the cost for this service has yielded a crapper service, the answer? They are near broke because they invested money in Rangers!!!

Never heard anything like it

What a rock Ally McCoist has been for (new) Rangers.

No ones interested anymore?

Good. Lets everyone in the world know how corrupt they were that they are now in the 4th tier.

Crowd for one 3rd Div game - 49,118
Crowds at all SPL games - 32,487

Crowds are still up on last year. Thought it was going to be armageddon?

You were awfully quiet last week when you DREW with PART-TIMERS Peterhead! lololololol

I wasn't in hiding just nothing to say on the matter.
