Somewhere laying dormant underneath all the internal problems at Rangers, there's a real desire from fans for the club to stick it to those who voted the Ibrox side down in 2012. Being forced to reapply for membership to the then-SPL, Rangers weren't exactly shocked to find that pretty much every other member club elected against voting them back into the mix, which meant the blue half of Glasgow had to apply for membership into the lower tiers.

Let's be honest, there was next to no chance of the likes of Celtic, Aberdeen, Hibernian or Dundee United voting Rangers back into the Premiership, because those clubs either have had an intense rivalry with Rangers (Celtic) or pretty much suffer from a bad case of jealousy over the success both sides of the 'Old Firm' have had (everyone else).

For Rangers fans, it's only a matter of time before things are restored to their natural order, and that's something nobody involved in the organisation can wait to experience. Lording it over sides such as Dundee United was the way it always was, and it seems likely - if Rangers can get their own house in order - that this will happen again.
