A couple of good replys here; http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-rangers-edge-closer-to-going-out-of-business
Thanks for posting this Hoopster - I found it interesting. I think the first three replies to Mr Gannon's article were excellent and exposed it for the wholly incompetent and shoddy piece of so-called journalism it was.
Just in from RangersMedia.. Posted Today, 01:16 PM POPULAR The above Company was incorporated on 11 October 1994, with a registered office at 24 Great King Street, Edinburgh. This Company subsequently changed its name on became "The Celtic Football and Athletic Company Limited" and currently trades as Celtic Football Club. So let us start the campaign that as the old Company folded in 1994 and was replaced by this Company, that all trophies, including the big jug, won before 1994 be stripped from their official records. The Company that Liewell runs has a very very proud history going back all of 18 years and has won 7 titles, 6 scottish cups and 5 league cups. Pass this info around every bear you know, get on the phone-ins and let us ensure the gloating fans of Pacific Shelf 595 Limited that we are not the first to think about a change of name, and that it doesnt necessarily mean that previous history is lost. http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=211762 Berz eh
****in spastics! Is the argument not IF Rangers go into liquidation (which I doubt they will), then they need to start a "Newco" and brand it as Rangers (or a variation of the name) , This means, in effect, the Rangers who won 54 titles would cease to exist and "Newco" start from 0 - unless they wait 3 years (to get registration from UEFA) and then purchase the "history" - like Fiorentina did. Celtic never went into liquidation and never started as a "Newco"! As I said spastics!
They're trying to suggest Celtic Football Club as a company has only existed since 1994 and ye's should be stripped of every trophy prior to that. This is a **** of a country but **** me ye get a right good laugh sometimes To ra Embassy!
Because the tic fans that believe we should have our titles taken away are just as pathetic as those quoted on there. You can't be a greetin' faced bairen then decide when the opposite team do it its funny and laughable (not that the tainted titles thread isn't) Theres a word for that and I'm sure a clever man such as yourself can figure it out without me saying it.
Nice to see you're taking such an interest in Celtic. I suppose that's understandable since it looks like you won't have much of a club to take an interest in for a while. As for the 'Big Book of Stock Responses' here's one I'm sure you'll love to hear again: [video=youtube;BvvqStpkQ5Q]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvvqStpkQ5Q[/video]
IF your titles are taken away it will be because you have been found guilty of winning them while cooking the books. It's not exactly the same as simply changing your name.
You're just disagreeing to save face on this board, we both know its a pathetic argument so I'll continue it no more.
