Are Dons making a cheeky dig at Rangers with website ‘no previous meetings’ note?

Aberdeen have insisted they haven’t taken a cheeky swipe at Rangers on their website by claiming they have never faced the club before.

On the upcoming fixtures section of their website, the Dons list their previous meetings with every side they face.

However the entry for the visit of Rangers to Pittodrie on September 25 says “no previous meetings found”.

Rangers’ status following liquidation in 2012 has been a much debated issue among Scottish football followers.

However the Dons have said they have not entered the debate over whether or not the Ibrox side is “a new club”.

A spokesman for the Dons said: “We updated our website in 2014 so our statistics only go back that far.

“Any club we haven’t played since before then will come up with the same message.”
