RANGERS have reported Livingston to the Scottish Professional Football League and are demanding an apology over remarks made in their official programme for Saturday's match, which the visitors won thanks to a Lewis Macleod goal, and which was also marked by scuffles inside and outside the ground.

The Ibrox club are furious over an article which called them "the club then known as Rangers" when referring to a fixture that took place three years ago. The programme also stated that "140 years of success, both domestically and in Europe, was consigned to history when, four months to the day after entering administration, the club was liquidated on 14 June 2012".

Kris Boyd was described as having had "a hugely successful spell with the now-defunct club" and the weekend match-up was labelled the first-ever meeting between the clubs.

The SPFL will be launching an investigation into the crowd trouble at the game after their match delegate, Alan Dick, included details of it in his match report.

Five first-half arrests were made after scuffles between stewards and fans in the away supporters section. "It looked pretty unsavoury," said Ally McCoist, the Rangers manager.
