Kris Boyd has been playing to the gallery with a column in The Sun that looks like it has been lifted from an Ibrox message board.
Celtic’s Champions League record of the last decade is repeated with some infantile claims as the former Portland Timbers goal ace gloats over the 6-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid.
It is hardly news, Boyd offers no insight or explanation but can be assured of the usual warm welcome from the Gullible & Deluded at Livingston tomorrow.
The fans that watched their team turned over by the sixth best team in Cyprus last month to accompany last season’s hard earned place in the Champions League record books.
‘When the Christmas lights go on, Celtic’s disco lights go off in Europe – at least Rangers & Aberdeen gave us SOME pride’, writes Kris Boyd??https://t.co/3mQbbDuxz5https://t.co/3mQbbDuxz5

As he broke into a career in the media Boyd found himself facing upto the most successful era of domestic domination that the Scottish game has ever witnessed. The last few years have destroyed him, in full public view.
In September 2016 as he described how Barrie Mackay’s shot that went wide of goal could have turned the match around Celtic had won three trebles in their history.
This morning they have eight. Alistair Johnston and Oh Hyeon-gyu have more Scottish winners medals than James Tavernier with the pain and hurt written all over Boyd’s regularly reconstructed face.
……..”writes Kris Boyd…”
With a crayon.

Losing to a club 18-30 resort is not something to take pride from.

I don’t think Boyd understands the calibre of team we have been battered by. Only a couple months ago Rangers got battered 5 – 1 from PSV, the year before Liverpool handed them an absolute embarrassing 7 – 1 defeat and to make it worse that was at Ibrox. 1/2

The usual pro Sevco pish pot soothing crap from Boyd…
For Fcuk sake – I’m off to the pub this afternoon for results Saturday and no doubt we will have to suffer his smug fat face on Sky –
Thank fcuk Sevco don’t play till tomorrow then !
Of all the banter years 2014-15 really takes some beating. He played in a one horse race in the lower tier of scottish football finishing twenty four points behind the leaders and then getting pumped six one in the play offs . He played twenty nine games and scored three goals. I nearly forgot to mention the fish supper cup defeats as well. We will never ever let him and super salary forget those shameful facts
This is a guy they allow near scissors.
Never mind the quadruple is for sevco,so says wee Coco at ibrox noise.
I keep the hope that one day Celtic fans will just ignore this clown and stop taking his bait
Because if they do then Sky Sports and that rag he writes for will drop him like a bad habit
Been wishing that for years Harold…and not just him…Shouldn’t be giving them publicity…But hey ho…it is what it is.
