How?

If liquidation ends up the outcome I doubt even yourself would argue that starting from scratch is the correct outcome if it happened to another club.
If Rangers accept this outcome it makes sense rather than be percieved to have warped the rules.
If what we are led to believe is true Rangers will not be permitted to participate in EUrope for 3 years regardless of where they finish.
They could also be handed a points deduction for the same period making league honours highly unlikely.
They would still compete in both the Scottish and league cups so no change there.
The lower divition competition would allow the development of your own players obviously adding strength as needed as you move up through the divisions which I cant see taking any longer than the 3 years your participation in the SPL is virtually void of any benifits.
By the time you renter the SPL your club would have had three years of fitba where your income vastly outstretched the expenditure needed to achieve the on field results required.
As I said it makes sense and as was also highlighted in the article it would be done in such as way as to remove any slight on the club having been given special treatment.
Was my take on it .

Scotscelt we are talking about Rangers here not dundee or Livi.

It would be the same if it was Celtic, scottish football would be in the doldrums without both!

Cookie I hope you dont go down this route as the Rangers who would re-enter the SPL would be a far more powerfull side than the one who has remained in it over the three years.
Now done right there would be a significant warchest to splurge ( a real one this time) outwith any investment from the owners at the time.
Stay and pressure to compete against Celtic will use up every cent the club makes despite being unable to win anything if the sanctions spoke of are correct.
It makes sense

As I said in the other thread I honestly hope you dont end up going down. Trying to come out of admin will take a serious toll and once you get there you are just back to square one.
The moral highground was forfieted long ago so seems strange you still take offence to it.
