Rangers skipper James Tavernier admits it is an 'absolute joy' working under Michael Beale as he revealed his minor slip up in training.
The former Ibrox No2 under Steven Gerrard returned north of the border to take on the big job after arriving from QPR following the sacking of Giovanni van Bronckhorst. The hard work behind the scenes has gone on ever since with a competitive bow taking place against Hibs later today. He got off the mark in a 3-0 friendly win over Bayer Leverkusen but the real action starts tonight at Ibrox.
Tavernier believes Beale will make the Rangers team stronger as he takes control of the ship and stamps his own philosophy on the team. The return has been made easier by his previous stint in Govan - and that may have been at the back of the mind of the skipper when he made a small error in addressing his new boss in training, he said: "Obviously he is gaffer now. I think I have only called him Mick once in training and I stopped myself doing it.
