Mark Warburton just can’t believe there is any cause for debate.
The former Ibrox boss was delighted to see James Tavernier inducted into the Rangers Hall of Fame last week yet the decision appears to have caused a split amongst the Ibrox support. For every punter who believes the man who skippered the club to its 55th title fully deserves his place among the Light Blues’ great and the good, there is another who contends that two trophies in eight years simply does not justify such lofty acclaim.

The Englishman told Record Sport: “Fans are entitled to their opinion but the fact is that Tav’s come through promotion from the Championship, a cup final loss in 2016, dealt with changes of managers, good times, bad times, a title win, a European adventure and been solid throughout.
