We asked if you would like to see captain James Tavernier given a new contract to stay at Rangers beyond this season.

Here are some of your views:

Angy: Tavernier is a key and very experienced player. Would hate to see him leave for sure. To be honest, when I think of Rangers he is the first player that comes to my mind, a true boy in blue.

Scott: Tav deserves to finish his career at Rangers. He has been a phenomenal servant to our club. The man never deserved any of the hatred he has received and should leave our club as the captain and legend that he is.

Luke: Clearly Tav should get another year. The squad is short on leaders and without his goals we wouldn’t be in the title race. He’s lost a yard of pace and maybe shouldn’t start the biggest games but is still more than capable of playing most games domestically.

Ross: Tav is a club legend, by far our best servant since the reformation. If he left now I’d be sad to see him go, but he could leave with his head held high. I personally don’t see him leaving yet, I think he’ll only go if we win the league again, either this year or next. Still, no one can take his career here away from him.

Elaine: Tav has been a great player for us but so were Ally McCoist, Brian Laudrup and Richard Gough. Every player has a shelf life so it’s thanks for your service Tav but time to move on. No one lasts forever.

Ronnie: No chance, couldn’t tackle a fish supper. Great going forward but how can you be a full-back when you can’t defend? Finally we have a manager who realises this.

Sally: Tavernier has been a great captain and club servant. It is now time for him to make way for a younger player. I believe he still has a place at Ibrox as a role model and mentor for young players. This an option both he and the club could explore.

Stuart: Time for Tavernier to go, yes his goals are impressive but he is poor defensively and has been at fault for a lot of goals against. His distribution from open play and free-kicks is generally poor this season. Everything slows down when he plays as we have to wait until he takes every free-kick, corners and throw-in. Last but not least his leadership is questionable at best.
