Fellow pundit McManus lays into baldy Boyd

Tam McManus has taken Kris Boyd to task over his Celtic obsession.

The balding Kilmarnock substitute was advised today by Brendan Rodgers to concentrate on winning back a first team place after his latest attack on the hoops on TalkSPORT, Sky Sports and Radio Scotland.

McManus is equally no friend of Celtic but wisely pointed out the problems of a current player, even occasional, offering opinions on a daily basis about his opponents.

As a player McManus enjoyed his best days at Hibs where he would score regularly against the top clubs in contrast to Boyd who has managed just one strike against the hoops in 17 years of trying.

https://t.co/R87g8UUiz5 I wrote this about Kris Boyd last November. Shouldn’t be commenting on other clubs in media while still playing. He had toned it down and concentrated on his club after this and done really well. Maybe he’s bored now he’s not in the team…

Guys, let’s help get this boy some followers on Twitter. I’m worried his career in the media is going to be as ordinary as his career in the game. His stats say 14 clubs in 19 years and 82 goals!! That can’t be right, can it? That’s 4.3 goals a season!! I’ve scored more in one game!(twice????) Maybe he should have started as a pundit when he was playing – it might have helped!

To be fair even a diddy like me scored more goals against Celtic…

Goals against the big teams about as thin on the ground as his barnet. https://t.co/GVQqyVuD9R

While Boyd ha tried to paint a picture of crisis at Celtic, the current champions are just a point adrift of reinvigorated Sevco.

With Eamonn Brophy continuing to impress for Stevie Clarke’s side it looks like Boyd will be enjoying the view from the bench for some time to come. As a Hamilton player Brophy scored twice against Celtic in the 2015/16 season.
