Attention Rangers fans! We reached out for your thoughts after Lawrence Shankland was appointed captain for the upcoming season.
Here’s what some of you had to say:
Ross: My top choices – Nicolas Raskin and John Souttar – are likely leaving, so Lawrence seems like an excellent pick given our current options. He has experience as a captain from his time at Hearts, understands the pressure of a title race (especially the importance of beating Celtic), and he’s a lifelong Blue. He’s intimately aware of this club and its supporters—what more could we ask for?

Gary: He’s the right choice for this role. He understands the club’s values and knows how to do things the Rangers way.
Elaine: In my opinion, he’s the only viable option. Lawrence is passionate about the club and fully understands what we need. His experience will earn him respect from the team, and like him, I’m eager for the season to kick off.
Alec: This is a fantastic decision. For the first time in years, it feels like the club is listening to the fans—we’ve got the manager we wanted, the striker we needed, and hopefully, we’ll bring back players like Vaclav Cerny.
Brian: Only time will tell how effective Shankland will be as captain. I’m hopeful that he will provide strong leadership and set a positive example, which I believe he will. With a robust, no-nonsense manager and a capable captain, we’re on the right path to restore Rangers to trophy-winning form.

Gordon: He seems like the most sensible choice. He’ll face a lot of pressure to lead the team and score goals, but Derek McInnes is certainly aware of his capabilities.
