Knowing how ineffective Rangers seems to be in certain areas I'd imagine Rangers would probably lose.I get your over-riding point about where do we draw the line in terms of what we can reasonably expect the club to get involved with.
However, there's quite a wide difference between standing grinning like a fanny with a big massive banner you've gone out and had made to "get it up" someone.... and someone recording a private conversation on a phone or something like that in a pub mate.
Bottom line is - as others have pointed out - it's entirely up to Rangers who they let into the stadium or don't. Bringing the club's name into disrepute via a deliberate action at a time when we're fighting on a range of fronts is arrogant, reckless, stupid and the club is entitled to deal with them as they see fit. If the punters facing a ban don't like it or think it's harsh, get lawyered up and see how far that gets them...
I get your point also, it's the where and when that if it went legal would potentially scupper Rangers. How much do Rangers want to control the people who travel unofficially. Near the stadium? in the same city? A different city? Anywhere in that country or on the way there? Not comparing to the scum and they can do what the %^*& they like. I've seen some vile stuff from them at away trips, however if not actually at the game or with rhe official travel group, what realistically are the powers that say were banning you. If the banner was in scotland Id expect a police response but I'm just not comfortable of action being taken due to stupid individual actions in a random place in a foreign country.
