Danny Rohl said Tavernier withdrew after being told to sit out his farewell, and Rangers later lost 2-1 to Hibs.
- On Wednesday, Rangers captain James Tavernier refused to be a substitute for his final home game against Hibs, staying away from the team after learning manager Danny Rohl would not start him.
- Rohl planned to bring Tavernier off the bench to honor his 11-year career, stating, "When you think about a start or not a start, this is exactly my decision because this is the reason why I am the manager."

- The match ended in a 2-1 defeat to Hibs, and Rohl expressed uncertainty whether Tavernier will be available for the final game at Falkirk on Saturday.
- Following four consecutive defeats, Rohl emphasized the need for "strong cut" and changes, stating, "Today it showed me that we need a strong cut, strong changes to move forward.
