Davis has been recognised for helping the Ibrox club open up a 10-point lead at the top of the SPL.

Rangers won three and drew two of their five league games last month, including snatching a point in the second Old Firm derby of the season.

Davis also broke his goalscoring duck for the campaign in the 2-0 win at St Mirren and followed that up with another effort against Falkirk.
