James Tavernier’s rallying call in support of Giovanni van Bronckhorst didn’t go down well with Ibrox fans last night.
After six defeats in seven weeks talk is cheap with even the gullible able to tear apart Tav’s vote of confidence in his manager.
Coming on the back of another passive performance against Napoli the former Wigan ace should sort his own game out before telling fans that the manager has the backing of the dressing room. The performances suggest otherwise.
Claiming that the players had ‘full belief in his tactics’ took supporters by srprise since one of the main criticisms is that there is no shape or pattern to the way that the team plays.
Despite his pointless displays Ryan Kent seems undroppable on the left wing while Fashion Sakala, Rabbi Matondo, Scott Arfield and Scot Wright seem to be on a rota to play on the other flank.
Tomorrow at 3pm Tavernier will need to back up his soundbites or the screams for change will become overwhelming.
Tav is saying all players agree with geo system and are behind the manager bull that’s tavs opinion only because it’s his wee pal gerard wd hav dropped tav long ago defender average at best and no voice on park y cos he makes more errors than rest of the team,goldson Capt wen fit

He’s the best right back in Scotland by some considerable distance.

Sounds like a scripted ‘vote of confidence’ to appease the fans. The fans ain’t stupid

This coming from the captain of that kub that sends outage tea boys to face the press every time there is a defeat.
“He’s the best right back in Scotland by some considerable distance.”
Phone an ambulance quick, this fud has had a deludemol overdose!!!
…on second thoughts, maybe don’t bother with the ambulance.
Notice how, when the Rangers aren’t awarded penalties in Europe, Tavpen becomes more obsolete ! His lack of general defending skills are blindingly obvious .He gets found out ,time and time ,again . Domestically is a different matter as our referees toe the Ibrox party line ,week in ,week out ! Good old Tav re-invents himself as this God of sporting activity. We are not worthy !
