Gonzo79 15,507 Posted Monday at 19:14 Share Posted Monday at 19:14 I don't understand the emotional stuff between fans and players. I don't care what's fair when it comes to handsomely paid footballers. As much as I can't stand him, Alex Ferguson had the right idea about squad changes. If your time's up, it's time to go - no fanfare, just go. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 247 Posted yesterday at 03:21 Share Posted yesterday at 03:21 Tav would be a great backup right back. I'd keep him until his contract expires. But yes, he needs the captaincy taken off him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnMc 3,265 Posted yesterday at 07:29 Share Posted yesterday at 07:29 John Grieg captained Rangers when Celtic won the European Cup, reached a further final and two further semi finals and won 9 in a row. He then won two trebles as captain. There's a reason why every manager that's come to Rangers has either made Tav captain or kept him as captain, and it's not because they're sentimental. I'd really like to see Tav get a run in a Rangers side with much better players in it, he's still the best full back in the league. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme 1,168 Posted yesterday at 07:29 Share Posted yesterday at 07:29 Had Tav left a couple of seasons ago we would all think well of him, but either the team have improved beyond him, or time is just catching up with him now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,507 Posted yesterday at 07:38 Share Posted yesterday at 07:38 It's fairly obvious the attacking side to his game has diminished in the past two seasons (goals and assists both down), he's lost a bit of pace and the defensive issues have also increased, with several examples where his lapses have cost us goals. It was time to sell him two seasons ago. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,932 Posted yesterday at 10:17 Share Posted yesterday at 10:17 Tavernier has been an excellent player until about two seasons ago his attacking flair compensating for defensive lapses but he is not captain material. You can see nervousness in his eyes as he stands in the tunnel to lead the team out. Richard Gough’s expression was one of utter steel. Shearer and Greig were grim determination personified. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of interest (not making a point) why can't you stand SAF, widely acknowledged as one of the best managers ever? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the second part totally. But I thought he claimed RFC released him because he married a catholic? Was that a lie? I just recall him as an average cf. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
