James Tavernier lifted the Scottish Premiership trophy yesterday as Rangers finally got their hands on title number 55.

The Gers skipper was instrumental throughout the campaign and his goals and assists helped Steven Gerrard's side to an unbeaten league campaign.

Tavernier continued celebrations this morning as he took to Instagram and Twitter to show off the league trophy beside him in bed.

He simply captioned his post "Good morning😄🏆".

The official Rangers Twitter account then responded saying: "Congratulations, you have just completed Twitter🏆".

Tavernier insists he never gave up hope that he could lead Rangers back to the top.

The Ibrox captain has had to endure some bitter days since moving to Glasgow in 2015.

There have been cup final defeats, derby drubbings and moments when it would have been easy to let faith slip.

But the Gers skipper says that even through the darkest of times, he always held on to the hope that Rangers would one day reclaim their place on Scottish football’s throne.

And his resilience has now paid off after Steven Gerrard’s team completed a historic undefeated season.

Speaking after his crowning moment when he became the first Rangers player in a decade to lift the Premiership trophy aloft, he said: “Does this make it all worth it? Yeah, it does.

“There have been ups and downs but now I’m sitting here with this trophy having won it with an amazing group.

“The staff, the players, everyone at the club and the fans – I’m just so proud of everything we’ve achieved this season.

“But this is just a taste of it and we want more next season.

“We’re happy to have this but we want more next season and that will be our aim.

“I always had belief that we’d win this.

“When the gaffer came in he brought in the players that we needed and set the standards from day one. It was only a matter of time before everything came together.

“You know, it’s been such a difficult year for everyone and it was a big ask for everyone.

“But I thought we handled it perfectly throughout the league campaign and to go unbeaten and set records is an amazing achievement.

“But this is a starting point for the group. We’ve got to enjoy this moment but when next season comes we have to push on and go again.”
