KBOO72 4,442 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Seems a bit strange that there hasn't been a thread started already about this, our captain reaching a big milestone, but I suppose that's just a reflection of the mixed feelings about Tav throughout the forum. In days gone by and with previous captains this thread would be pages long and full of thankful wishes and positive posts. I guess I'll start by saying congratulations Tav. Great achievement to reach 250 games and as was mentioned on the commentary yesterday his goals and assists stats over those games are fantastic for a right back. Barely misses training session or a game and although he's had his ups amd downs, as every player does, I don't think anyone can argue that he's been a brilliant signing considering the 250k we paid. Great to see him get on the scoresheet yesterday to mark the ocassion and in my opinion he's started the season pretty well. Obviously part of a defence yet to concede domestically and still offering goals, assists and a general attacking threat as he has done since he joined, perhaps without hitting the heights of his first season or 2. I've made my feelings pretty clear in the past about his captaincy but I really hope we see him lifting silverware above his head at the end of the season.

McEwan's Lager 30,808 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 250 games without a major trophy must be some kind of record at Ibrox. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat 4,511 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Congratulations to our under rated captain............hope he reaches the 300 mark this season and lifts some silverware along the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeyserSoze 14,655 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I’m not one for the whole club captain thing. Never have been tbh. I think the captain is just symbolic. Tav has been an absolute professional and a fantastic servant to our club. Long may it continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 31,088 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 The fact that he rarely gets injured in training or games in a very impressive accomplishment. He may not be captain material when the going gets tough, but he has earned the right to lift a trophy. Let's hope it is 55 this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creampuff 22,628 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 If he’s still captain at the start of next season it’ll be the longest run as captain since Richard Gough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcf 34,514 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Thought by his own standards he was pretty poor last season , but seems to be back to his normal self this one . A thorough professional that bombs up and down the park all day , a threat going forward and always makes himself available , I really hope he gets to lift a trophy this year .

BridgeIsBlue 66,639 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Stats are mental for a right back, still can't forgive him for his comments before the Hamilton game IIRC last season. Started this campaign well though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at all the assists he has had, the goals he has scored and the work he has done, and that mistake pales in comparison. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Williamson. 83,327 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Just read someone on Facebook post that Tav is "one of our own and Rangers through and through" I will never understand how an element of lunatics in our support seem to think everyone that signs for the club is "one of our own" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Williamson. 83,327 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 For quite awhile I didn't mind Tav and actually seen him as a favourite current player of mine at the club but his article in the match programme really fucked it He's won absolutely nothing of note in terms of silverware with us either which is just a dreadful stat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMB 14,167 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Barisic and Tavernier are so crucial to the way we play. We couldn’t replace them if we tried. We’re lucky to have two players of this quality on either side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, Tav also worked very hard in that game and his mistake cost us. It's one of many mistakes made in many games by many players over the years. The good outweighs the bad in a huge way IMO.
