    If they were the same club they would have been playing in the SPL last season and they wouldn't have played Forres Mechanics in the Scottish Cup either.

    Changing division doesn't make you a new club.

    As for the Scottish Cup, Rangers entered at the same stage as the other Division Three clubs.

    Club with Memberships and Licenses to play in Assoiciations and Leagues dont need to apply to trade them with "the same club" haha

    We are the people, we want to swap our licences and memberships from Rangers to the new... eh, sorry to the same club.

    The Scottish Cup is seeded based on the league position a club finished in the previous season.

    If it was the same team they would have entered the cup at the same time at the top seeded teams. They didn't.

    No, entry to the round Rangers entered at was based on your division in the same season i.e. Division Three.

    The application was to transfer the SPL share from the old company which ran the club to the new company. That was knocked back. The club continues with the same SFA membership as always, just in a different division.

    As does the obsession you lot have with us. :)

    And teams that finish in the SPL the previous season are exempt from round 3.

    Yet The Rangers still took part in that round.

    Exempt is not the same as banned. Rangers went into the tournament at the appropriate round for a Division 3 club.

    Seriously? That's your argument?

    Funny how the SFA rules are bent when it suits you.

    Where you entered the Scottish Cup last season was based on your seeding. Your seeding was based on where you finished in the league structure the previous season.

    That is why Dunfermline, Falkirk, Hamilton and Livi went in at the 4th round stage and not the 3rd round stage.

    So you think exempt means the same as banned?

    Did you really expect a team to enter the competition then go back out without losing a game then go back in again?

    No, as I alluded to earlier, the criteria for entry were not on the same basis for every round. The criterion for the round where Rangers entered was based on the club's league stratus at that time, not on the season before. Check the SFA rules for the season concerned if you want.

    Did I say that?

    If that's what the rules say... (you know, those same rules that The Rangers used as proof that the SFA acted outside their powers).

    Huge blow. Luckily, we have good cover with Matthews and Fisher.

    If they weren't the same club then how can they still advertise as winning the title a world record 54 times and UEFA, SFA, ECA and the ASA all agree?

    United - Aberdeen on new years day is setting itself up to be a cracker.

    Looking forward to it already. :)

    Yes can't wait United weren't as good today but still got the win.

    Crowd of 8000 not too bad considering the form they are in they should not be getting any less than 10000 a game. Not many away fans

    Game will be a 14000 sell out as United have very few tickets left

    In a way I want United to win their next two games just so it sets it up ever more.

    No idea who will win, both teams in great form, Aberdeen won 8 of last 10, United won their last 6 matches.

    I think United will rightly be favourites, the only negative against them really is that in 5 games this season against the 3 other teams chasing 2nd this season they have only won 1 out of 5 and lost 3 where as Aberdeen have won all 5 games against United, Caley and Well.

    I agree with your summary. It's been a strange season as there is this massive gap between top 6 and bottom.

    There is only really 1 top 6 place up for grabs between st Johnstone and hibs
