I don't think they will have their titles stripped to be honest. I certainly don't want them, we were beat fair and square on the park

We will surpass that amount on our own accord

If there's been cheating then the titles need to go.

Don't want them though.

Just do what the tour did with Lance's titles.

By players who would never have signed for them had they not been paid money in brown envelopes.

Zico,

For a start, its only 5 SPL titles that are under threat I believe.

The Scottish Cup and League Cups are not being reviewed.

I do happen to think they will be removed (if we have any liability in the BTC) and thats fair enough if they are going after a technicality.

We do have 5 war time wins that could be added to our trophey count though. Would bring us back up to the real count.

Celtic count their stats fromt his period, so Rangers may decide to also.

Up to the club I suppose if they want to do this.

Hard to see any outcome other than Rangers being stripped of their EBT-fuelled titles. And that's the way it should be. And with RFC Cadaver now no longer with us (very sad), it won't be long till Celtic surpass that former club's record

The Scottish League was suspended during WW2, so hard to see how anything won during that period can be classed as League Championship wins

What about the wee diddy teams yous beat in Finals?
Robbed their fans of an historic day, robbed their clubs of money and maybe European qualification.

The whole thing is a shame.

======================

Was the top division in scotland at the time.

Celtic count the records achieved in this period for their stats, so your club obviously recognises the period.

But there was no such thing as the Scottish League Championship during the war, so whatever you want to call those titles, they are not Scottish League Championships

"Having already suffered unfairly, that should be the end of it, whether justifiable or not. Enough is enough."

17 trophies won unfairly - And you think Rangers have been punished enough? I strongly disagree - The punishment hasn't even started yet.

If the team I supported had cheated to 17 trophies - I would be dying of shame.

Various cheats have been stripped of titles they won unfairly. Ruling boides such as the Olympic Committee, Football Assosciations, Cylcing Authorites and others have acted, retrospectively, to ensure that cheats don't benefit from their cheating activites.

So, if - and it's a big 'if' - Rangers are found to have cheated then in my opinion they should be stripped of titles. The titles should, in my opinion, be left 'unawarded' for those affected years.

As far as 'they have been punished enough' goes I'm sorry. Unlike criminal law the SFA rules doesn't allow you to have 43 other cheating offences 'taken into account.'.
