Singular or plural verb?[edit]

I notice some inconsistencies regarding use of singular or plural verbs in this article. At the beginning it says: "Rangers Football Club is". But, at the start of the History section, it says: "Rangers were formed..."

Why the inconsistency? I agree that a name like Dundee or Clyde should be "Dundee is..." or "Clyde is..." But with Rangers being a plural noun, then "Rangers Football Club is..." just sounds weird.

Grammar experts please advise.

December 2020[edit]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Ellis Cashmore. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 14:25, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
