[BBC] We asked for your views on James Tavernier's Rangers career after the captain announced he will leave at the end of the season following an 11-year stint. Here is a selection of your thoughts: Steven : Tavernier has always carried himself well and behaved the way a Rangers captain should. However, despite this and all his goals and assists, his defending has always been poor and mistakes have possibly offset many of those goals!

He's been a fantastic servant and captain to the club during many difficult times and leaves with his head held high. Louise : Tavernier has been a true servant to Rangers. He has stayed through highs and lows and quietly taken criticism and graciously taken praise.

For me, Tav is a Rangers legend and a loyal captain. Though I'm sad to see him leave, now is probably a good time as he hasn't been starting every game. Let's hope he can leave on a high - thanks for everything skipper.

Chris : Tavernier has been a tremendous contributor to this club. His goals and assists have been a big part of our return from the depths of the lower leagues. He has deserved better from some sections of the fanbase who perhaps expect too much.
