Every manager and player that has ever worked with James Tavernier speaks highly of him. This season Raskin, Barron, Naderi, Rohl, all singing his praises in the post-match interviews. Warburton, Gerrard, Arfield, Walter Smith, etc.

The list of Rangers men who appreciate the captain just goes on and on.

I hope James finishes the season having captained up to another league winners trophy, and as our top scorer.

24 Apr 2026 06:56:55
But they're all wrong according to some on here, RohlWithCheese. 😲

{Ed001's Note - this is embarrassing, you are like a bunch of bald men arguing over a comb and trying to prove who needs it more. Every single person has said he has been a great servant, just some think he is a legend, some don't. The problem is that people seem to have to prove everyone else is wrong and won't accept any other point of view. I have read so many pointless, boring, tedious arguments on here over the years but this has taken the biscuit.}

24 Apr 2026 07:23:58
Hahahaha, I'm just relieved that Tav announcing he's leaving has moved us on from Skov's confidence issues.

24 Apr 2026 07:36:01
Skov has confidence issues, hadn't heard. 👀😵‍💫

24 Apr 2026 08:08:31
Anyone got more of those Dahl rumours?

24 Apr 2026 09:02:40
That was a lovely message from Andrew, to be honest, a touch of class from the chairman. 💙

24 Apr 2026 09:37:37
Agreed, Stig. The guy's got class.

24 Apr 2026 09:11:14
Ed a great post. Ed. Feel sorry for I and your staff who bring us a great site

24 Apr 2026 09:35:20
Spot on Ed, like u say great servant and thanks for all your endeavour. 👍

24 Apr 2026 09:38:00
I actually quite enjoy the legend debate. Just slight difference of opinions but still being respectful about a player for a change. Brings up memories of previous players and achievements to compare with.

It's good to look back on the glory times as a result. And even looking back at all his goals as a result so afraid we'll probably bore u a bit longer if u don't block us all for it. 😂😂

24 Apr 2026 09:40:15
Not nice Ed I have a full head of hair. 🤦‍♂️

24 Apr 2026 09:42:34
So the Rangers support all agree he has been a great player for Rangers? Or, as I have seen, are there some Rangers fans who talk very disparagingly about Tavernier and think he has been and is a poor player? That he has been a failure, and is the cause of systemic failure? I've seen Tavernier being abused from the stands, in car parks, and basically blamed for every failing this club has made for a decade. It's not just a group of fans, who all agree he is a fantastic player, wondering if he meets the criteria of legend or not. There's people among the Rangers support who hate Tavernier and blame him for everything.

24 Apr 2026 09:44:06
Rangers fans love a good argument, it's the same with all Scottish folk. We love a good argument for some reason.

24 Apr 2026 12:04:54
Hate him? Calm doon, lad. Yes, people had a go at him all through our team's performances, it was just fans high on emotions, which was wrong, but to suggest any Rangers fan hates Tav is just a wild take, maybe just a fan high on emotions again, getting carried away.

24 Apr 2026 13:18:30
I've met plenty of Rangers fans that hate Tavernier and openly have said that over the years. I've heard them screaming "f*** off" from the top of their lungs at him from the stands. Abusing him in car parks.

Blaming him for everything.

Don't try and pretend everyone loved him now just because he's leaving. The fans treated Tavernier very poorly during his time with Rangers. He deserved better.

24 Apr 2026 13:51:38
Again Rohl With Cheese is right in what he's saying.
He's said a lot of things that are being strongly disagreed with since he came on, but a lot of what he's said is actually true.

24 Apr 2026 14:20:30
Because he's bang on the button about Tavernier, Stevie, clearly some don't like hearing it, mate.

24 Apr 2026 19:04:56
I wrote on the Rangers review post today that whoever the bald guy saying he's not a legend is wrong.

The post Tom done today is absolutely on the button, mate.

By the definition of the word, Tav is a legend, it's not up for debate, it's fact.



Euro team of year.
Record clean sheet.
Record goals against.
All time British scoring defender.
Captained 55 that stopped 10.
European finalist.

That's stuff of legend. If that was Manny's record when he left, he'd be called a legend.

23 Apr 2026 21:01:49
John, I'm sure Jack Butland played outfield.

23 Apr 2026 22:12:09
Cool haha days the one I refer to started his academy career as a goalie, then was moved to midfield, playing a few positions.

23 Apr 2026 22:22:03
John was Derek Johnston not originally signed as a goalkeeper.

23 Apr 2026 23:18:38
Goram played outfield at cricket. 😅

23 Apr 2026 19:14:05
Business end starts on Sunday and getting very nervous! We need to get Ibrox rocking and let's hope for the Title boys🇬🇧✌️.

23 Apr 2026 18:28:42
What is the consensus of opinion, does DR get criticised if we don't win the league. The players have been treated to a week in the sun no expense spared, so they should be suitably rested. We have paid millions on signing players and now we are talking about 20 million for the likes of Raskin and Fernandez.

So yes no excuses the next 5 games will show me if DR can an us titles. My view is that if this Celtic team win the double it will hold us back for years. We must break the cycle of failure starting on Sunday.

23 Apr 2026 19:35:41
Absolutely not. The fact that end of October we were closer to relegation places than top of the league remains a fact. That we are even in a shout of winning the league is something to celebrate.

23 Apr 2026 19:38:01
BT, I don't see anything holding us back now. Hopefully we do win the league, but success is only around the corner if we don't. They've got some work to be done this summer. We'll still have 16/17 players from this season. Many will they have, it will not 16. Some amount of players they need signed and also need a manager.

23 Apr 2026 20:04:09
Hope you're right, Mystar, sometimes it's all about mentality, a winning culture, a willingness to get over the line no matter what. We haven't had that recently. They have. Celtic have had a lot of their better players out injured for months on end, their board didn't make any permanent signings in January probably because they thought they had enough to win the league.

Let's hope we prove them wrong.

23 Apr 2026 20:24:02
I don't think there should be any criticism of Danny Rohl. This is not his squad, nor do I believe this is the brand of football he wants to play. Right now, I think he's doing the best he can with what he has to work with.

23 Apr 2026 20:27:57
Would be absolutely devastated, but wouldn't hold it against Danny tbh.

23 Apr 2026 21:03:45
We'd all be like that, Boy Blue, but we're building something, mate, Rohl's done some job getting us here.

23 Apr 2026 21:30:53
When you look at the squad we have, and remember they were RM's signings, then DR deserves a lot of credit.
Add to the fact, only 3 players are of his choice, which have been mainly successful (Skov was a Marquee acquisition due to his previous performances), then you have to feel optimistic for next season if he gets to pick his own team.

24 Apr 2026 09:43:56
Need to install bottle into them, we always fall short.

24 Apr 2026 12:11:45
Losing 2-0 against Falkirk at half time is our last game, and then winning the game 3-6 should bottle TF.

23 Apr 2026 17:24:56
Lewis Ferguson is apparently leaving Bologna this summer. I think we should be all over this. We made a mistake not signing him previously and I think we would be daft not to enquire. He would be a great signing and a potential candidate for captain.

23 Apr 2026 17:34:12
I think we could get better for cheaper tbh. I've not seen much of Ferguson in Italy, but every time I've seen him play for Scotland he's been pretty underwhelming.

23 Apr 2026 17:37:14
Couldn't afford Lewis Ferguson now, Boyne. 🤔

23 Apr 2026 17:58:08
Tidy player without having any great flair, I agree, every time I've seen him play for Scotland, very underwhelming.

23 Apr 2026 18:26:35
He's valued at £20m.

23 Apr 2026 18:39:01
No possibility whatsoever.

23 Apr 2026 19:08:49
Think you'd get Ferguson for around 10m, less than we get for Raskin.

23 Apr 2026 19:11:56
Ferguson wanting out as not getting game time in League??? Why not. ✌️👍

23 Apr 2026 19:12:31
Ferguson was MoM versus Denmark. He does a job for the team that goes unseen to some.

23 Apr 2026 19:14:20
No chance we can afford Ferguson, just can't see it at all.

23 Apr 2026 19:15:57
Not getting a game at Bologna so don't see him further stepping up in Italy.

23 Apr 2026 21:21:46
Very good player, we missed the boat tho! Now fee and wages too high.

23 Apr 2026 21:48:08
He'll
Go to EPL for £20m lads.

24 Apr 2026 08:32:58
He would be a massive upgrade on Barron that's for sure.

23 Apr 2026 17:12:33
Amar Fatah linked

23 Apr 2026 19:16:15
30 games, 8 goals, 3 assists the boy has.

23 Apr 2026 20:45:07
Fatah mostly plays off the left-wing. Yes, he has 8 goals this season, but he takes the penalties. I think he's only scored 5 goals from open play.

Findlay Curtis plays left wing and had scored 3 goals from open play within the first few weeks of the season. If Findlay Curtis got a full season of football at Rangers, I honestly think he could score and create plenty of goals from us.



So the question is, if we have Curtis for the left-wing, why would we need another left-winger with a similar output? What we need is someone who plays on the right wing and is predominantly left-footed. When Olsen signed, Rohl specifically mentioned that he wanted a left-footed option for the right side. Olsen hasn't worked, so the need for that type of player remains.

24 Apr 2026 11:13:38
Olsen hasn't worked yet, and without starting the should he or not, I think he is still going to be here next season.

23 Apr 2026 15:45:53
Looking forward to Ibrox on Sunday, going to be euro night atmosphere for next two home games so hopefully we fire in plenty of goals and no nerve ridden games, let's do this Rangers 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧👍.

23 Apr 2026 16:38:37
Rangers 3, Motherwell 1, a Tav hat-trick Coopersdad. 😁

23 Apr 2026 17:08:31
Probably start Sterling. 😇

23 Apr 2026 17:27:41
It will be Coopersdad. Be absolutely electric, mate.

23 Apr 2026 19:16:37
I would hope so, Fork.
