As the leader and longest serving member of this Rangers squad, James Tavernier has been forced to bear the brunt of fan frustration this season.
Be it online or on the Ibrox doorstep, it’s been the skipper who has copped it in the neck from the seething support more than any other.
Some of the criticism is fair. But there have been moments – most notably when Tavernier was subjected to a ridiculous personal rant as he led his team back to Govan following this month’s Old Firm defeat – when things have majorly crossed a line.
There’s no doubt, though, that with Tavernier attracting most of the bullets, it has allowed the rest of the Ibrox squad to duck for cover.
