Widely known as a Sectarian club that has been under many investigations for racism and sectarianism. The clubs most controversial issue was not allowed Catholic players to play for the squad until 1988 - some 100 years after it had been established. A percentage of Rangers fans are often allowed to sing sectarian songs and chants.

The quintessential English club playing in Scotland, probably best known for its moronic support who hate all things Catholic and, for some strange reason, Irish. The supporters also appear fixated by paedophilia, probably due to the actions of a previous first team player. First club in the history of European football to be fined for sectarian behaviour, its supporters have been banned from travelling within the UK due to past troubles. Struggled in recent years due to financial difficulties, it is now very much an also ran in the competition for prizes.
"This has to be said about Rangers…as a Scottish Football club they are a permanent embarrassment and an occasional disgrace. This country would be a better place if Rangers did not exist". - Ian Archer (journalist 1970s)
