Rangers have hit at back after it was revealed the Compliance Officer could take action against comments made by club icon John Brown during club commentary in the 2-2 draw with Hibernian.
An official statement read: “In a season where Rangers have been on the receiving end of several major officiating errors, frustration is entirely understandable.
“The idea that spontaneous remarks could warrant disciplinary action is excessive, surprising and inconsistent.
“This development should not overshadow what was a clear mistake, evident to anyone who has seen the footage of the game.
“The focus should be on raising refereeing standards for the good of Scottish football.
“Should a charge follow, we will defend it, and question whether club channels across the league are being monitored and policed equally.”
