In June 2012, Rangers Football Club was consigned to liquidation as a result of two decades of living beyond their means in pursuit of league titles, cups and competition prize money.

The assets of Rangers FC wereacquired by Sevco (Scotland) Ltd, now renamed The Rangers Football Club Ltd, and the new club was allowed to join the Scottish Football League in Division 3 in August 2012.

Since then, the club,with the acquiescence ofthefootball governing authorities in Scotland, has claimed to be the same club that acquired those honours.

In the event that Celtic is drawn to play against The Rangers FC in the Scottish League Cup (or on anyfuture occasion when Celtic plays them), we the undersigned call on Celtic FC to ensure that any promotional materials issued by the club for the match includes a clear, unambiguous statement to the effect that the opposition is a new club formed in 2012 and that this will bethe first ever occasion that Celtic will play against them.

I have not been to Celtic park since this lie started and wont be back unless my club does the right thing and addresses this lie.

Are football clubs exempt from going bust in the eyes of the law? No. This charade must be exposed once and for all or this game we all love is a sham and as a result will die as the fans turn away in disgust.

My years of legal training are of no consequence now that I have seen the wonderful case put forward by these petitionees. I never realised how entities and titties could become legal maxims. Ipso loqitur et al. Anyway Im off to read more of the lawful precedent set by Oirish bloggers as thay are SO "in point". My bad..

The world knows the truth and Celtic FC should be clear and unequivocal . Aftewr all we have representation on the board of the SFA who should be compelled to state the obvious - Rangers FC were liquidated in 2012. The Rangers are a new club with a 2 year history.

Todays LC S/F draw has paired us with a Entity that has only been in place since 2012..Fair play to them for getting this far in there 3rd season..My prediction is Celtic 7..Cheats Inc 0..

The club have to show that they're in touch with the fans over this issue, for what it's worth I think the fans of all the other clubs in Scotland will back this as well
