Sky Sports provided their viewers with an unexpected bonus on Sunday with Kris Boyd ducking out of covering Celtic’s trip to Dundee United.
It seems that one month into the season his claim that Alfredo Morelos is a better player than Jota is haunting him in the same way as his high pitched excitement and high-fiving over the loan signing of Aaron Ramsey.
Former Dundee United defender Sean Dillon provided a genuine insight into the situation at Tannadice and where Jack Ross stands as his nightmare run of results continues.
All three pundits, well two plus Faddy switching pay cheque from the BBC, had a worthwhile contribution to make while Eilidh Barbour could relax knowing that she didn’t have to keep her school teacher hat on to prevent Boyd’s anger and stupidity from going too far.
Last season Boyd checked out early after the Glasgow derby on May 8- Celtic clinched the title at Tannadice then were presented with the trophy with the star pundit of Sky Sports nowhere to be seen.
On Saturday Boyd was sharing his thoughts on the Chelsea v Leicester match from the Sky Sports News studio- hopefully he is in line for promotion to their EPL team of experts.
Ready to go at Tannadice. Celtic are in town looking to go back to the top of the table. Dundee Utd looking for their first win of the league campaign. See you 11am @ScotlandSky pic.twitter.com/VewI1acXDh
