Kris Boyd was trying to put a brave face on his team’s latest hammering- this time the venue was Ibrox, the opponents Napoli and the scoreline only 3-0.
It has been a tough month so far for Giovanni van Bronckhorst but also for the media’s Ibrox cheer-leaders as they try to cope with an aggregate that now reads 0-11.
Boyd puts in real Jekyll and Hyde performances on Sky Sports, in reality he gets very down and depressed watching his team getting hammered or he remembers his media hat and tries to joke it off when reality catches up with the Tribute Act.
GOAL! Rangers 0-3 Napoli (Ndombele, 90+1′) ?

The message from last night was that it was a plucky performance, undone by a red card, the sort of decision that Scottish referees are highly unlikely to make.
Underlying there is a major issue brewing with Transfer Guru Ross Wilson, last night none of the Magnificent Seven started the match with van Bronckhorst recalling the nearly men of Allan McGregor, Alfredo Morelos, Ryan Jack and Steve Davis to try and snatch a face saving point.
