Disappointed, ashamed and embarrassed- that was the verdict of Kenny Miller after suffering a 5-1 defeat from Celtic today.
Last night the 37-year-old promised to deliver next season’s SPFL title after signing a 12 month contract extension.
Miller scored the consolation goal that was witnessed by less than 10,000 home fans as they departed in droves as Celtic ran all over their favourites.
A reaction was promised after the 2-0 Scottish Cup semi-final but this week Celtic converted more of their chances although the 5-1 scoreline was no reflection on the balance of play.
Miller suffered an afternoon of frustration as he discovered the reality of a team recruited without the incentive of secretive ‘tax free’ payments.
After being cemented by Jozo Simunvic during the first half little was seen of the Ibrox striker as his team-mates crumbled against the free flowing football of the six in a row champions.
Miller also suffered the short straw of being put up for media duties with his team-mates leaving Ibrox without any comment.
