I've heard a rumour that tav has demanded 600.000 to compensate for his testimonial if he goes lol get yerself tae, tav.
04 Sep 2024 11:20:37
I don’t believe that at all and the level of the current witch hunt for a player who’s given 9 years of his best service is quite frankly disgusting to me. Tav’s legs are starting to fail him but name me one player who’s played 60+ games for the past few years who’s hasn’t.
He’s been our best player for years and has never hid which he should be commended for not berated because he’s captain of a failing team. He’s been struggling since the start of the year and needs taken out the team at least for a break but the abuse he’s getting is bang out of order at the moment.
04 Sep 2024 11:29:18
How many fans would actually show up to his testimonial? Read the room Tav!
04 Sep 2024 12:11:08
Testimonials at Rangers the money should be going to some charity, gone are the days it was used to help with the players future to be fair so would be disappointed if he is going down that route for a reason to get money off the club.
04 Sep 2024 12:18:45
Yep seen that last week.
04 Sep 2024 12:29:02
If that's true then he can leave as soon as possible.
04 Sep 2024 12:32:18
I think John posted this over a week past. I can't see it! As much as I want him gone, I really think this is a vicious rumour with no substance at all.
04 Sep 2024 12:51:39
John did in fact indicate this regarding Tavernier and his testimonial. Problem is for Tavernier, I can’t see him getting a good turn out the way things are going his only chance of a turnout is if he agrees to donate the proceeds to a worthy charity.
04 Sep 2024 12:56:56
whether it is true or not I agree with Davidb in that there now is a perpetual witch hunt against him. yea have the opinion that his legs have gone, he can't defend, he is never a captain but this behaviour is uncalled for. Unless like someone suggested yesterday that he is paying PC to play him then he is being chosen as the manager sees hi as his best right back to play the style PC wants.
you may disagree with that as well but until you pass the interview to become the Gers manager you are like me just a fan with an opinion. support the guy for goodness sake and he might actually play better. he had 2 -3 weeks of pre-season he missed so he may not actually be match fit yet and needs minutes to get there.
04 Sep 2024 13:14:50
As far as I was aware, most testimonial cash goes to the players chosen charity.
04 Sep 2024 13:18:20
Agree Sunshine. I’ll wait and see.
04 Sep 2024 13:45:08
Players that have testimonials give money to charity these days and this guy wants it all for himself who will turn up for it?
04 Sep 2024 13:58:58
I've never been a great fan of Tav as a defender and never thought he should've been made captain however, his defensive frailties aside, he's never shy'd away from anything and given us some fantastic performances and goals we should never forget. To be confronted as he was on Sunday is not something i'm proud of seeing and would hope the majority of our fans were embarrassed by it. I'd be astounded if he demanded anything for himself from a testimonial and would hope he'd be donating everything to a worthy cause.
04 Sep 2024 14:41:45
Tell you what no matter the outcome of this season and no matter how frustrated I am at the way things turn out I will be there if Tav does have a testimonial because he deserves the appreciation from the fans and I for one am grateful for the service he’s given our club. It’s not his fault he was surrounded by dross for the first few years of his rangers career and also not his fault we’ve never bought adequate backup who can give him a chance to rest instead of just running him into the ground repeatedly. Don’t care what people say he is a player that I will always look fondly upon for the commitment and quality he has given to our club.
McGregor was treated like a legend and given far more leverage in his final year when he was miles off it and gave away numerous goals which cost us loads of points. Let’s not forget he also disappeared for nothing when we were in our darkest time. How about we get off Tavs back and give him some support and encouragement then maybe he’ll repay us for the umpteenth time.
04 Sep 2024 14:50:03
He has given a lot to the club but as a club we have been to sentimental to many players last 3/ 4 years. He's.
04 Sep 2024 15:20:04
I hear Rangers have demanded 100k back from Tav for each individual trophy he has failed to deliver over his tenure at the club??so he owes us a few bob.
04 Sep 2024 15:40:44
Tav bee our best player ?????.
04 Sep 2024 15:46:18
Hammerite totally agree with the assessment of Tav.
But as another poster said maybe Tav isn’t up to fitness levels yet. My question is why was he playing in a game against Them when we need players to be fit and we could have been playing Sterling at right back and Lawerence in midfield, Or is this another oversight by PC. ?????????.
04 Sep 2024 15:53:02
Don't believe that at all, its now becoming toxic the whole tav situation and for his own sake he has to be taken out of the firing line ideally he'd get a move away or maybe a loan can be struck before the Turkish window closes next week. BTW if he has a testimonial I. ll be going he's been a great servant and that shouldn't be forgot.
04 Sep 2024 15:53:26
It's not true.
04 Sep 2024 16:21:00
Blue Floyd, your comment is an absolute disgrace and you are also a disgrace for making it. It is typical of the way this forum has been souring this past few months.
04 Sep 2024 16:38:33
Ows a loan is a good shout and feel the club should be looking at all avenues of getting him away for now and that sort of covers him for a testimonial and gets his wage off our books for a season.
04 Sep 2024 16:43:42
He wanted money to donate it to charity not for him.
04 Sep 2024 16:45:18
Hubby - humour is obviously lost on you or are we not allowed to make light out of darkness.
04 Sep 2024 16:59:35
That’s at least a good thing John.
04 Sep 2024 17:57:40
Newman. Is this the same Lawrence who lots on here said didn't have the legs to play against them and the same Sterling who lots on here said wanted to play in midfield to give us legs to play against them. manager can't win no matter who he picks so he needs to pick who he sees as best.
04 Sep 2024 21:29:53
I do get a bit tired with how negative our supporter base can be. I know it's been a poor result, and no one likes losing to them, but the never ending witch hunt against Tav and the general negativity from fan media on players, manger, eveyone, etc. is tiresome. For whatever reason. And I don't think it's a great advert for potential players, managers etc.
04 Sep 2024 21:35:36
Hubby there is nothing wrong whatsoever with what blue floyd said lighten up.
04 Sep 2024 23:43:29
I have been a massive Tav backer since day one, his technical ability on the ball is undeniable (even for the biggest doubters the stats don’t lie in terms of goals and assists) . But now is definitely the time for him to move on before he tarnishes his reputation any further. We have more cover at rb than we’ve ever had, Sterling, Kasawanjiro, Balgon, Barron, King and Devine can all play there. Time to say thank you and good night.
05 Sep 2024 00:24:57
Angus off course Sterling Should have been RB I couldn’t think of any other MF apart from Lawerence and Tav shouldn’t been playing at all, Unfortunately he is not the player he once was. ?????????.
05 Sep 2024 01:59:22
I think we can all agree he does not deserve the level of abuse he has been getting. I also think we can all agree that this will be tabs last season at ibrox.
05 Sep 2024 11:56:00
will his testimonial be V Wigan, Gateshead or Carlisle?
