Rangers are the most decorated club in the history of Scotland Premiership but sadly their last league trophy came way back in 2010, thus they would be looking for a bounce-back in terms of collecting trophies.
Talking about Ranger’s absence from the winner’s list for the past 10 years we should also take into consideration that they were once knocked out of the league. Yes, you read that right Rangers remained in the top division continuously until a financial crisis happened during the 2011–12 season and the original company’s assets moved to a new company structure.
The club was accepted as an associate member of the Scottish Football League but placed in the fourth tier of the Scottish football league. Rangers then won three promotions in four years, returning to the Premiership for the start of the 2016–17 season.
