Kris Boyd downed tools for us long before he left first time round, from Jan-May that season he scored twice. This was BEFORE he announced he’d leave because he’d “achieved all he could” in Scotland. He was a failure at every club thereafter, but hes earned the right? Whatever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said those players were here on a jolly when the fact is he was even less effective than them in his last spell here. Sheer hypocrisy. I’d say ‘takes one to know one’ &, as I’ve said previously, KB has shown us 2 sides of the same coin, one of which where he seriously underperformed (so yes, there’s a bit of hypocrisy about it). Hence, he knows what that’s all about. And he’s talking from a position where he’s got almost twice as many goals this season as the man in question, who folk are dancing cartwheels to try to justify, in what we would regard as a shite Kilmarnock team. You may not care, but I don’t think you can dismiss that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 If we had a striker of Kris Boyds ability up front along with the buffalo we could be sitting top of the league. I thought he was terrific in his first spell with us not so good the second time around though. But if your granny had balls and all that ,hopefully we are going to sign another striker like Kris boyd to pair up with morelos this transfer window.

Negri's lovechild 13,904 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Just had a thought there, what would people think if Boyd wrote an article making judgements on Kilmarnock's summer signings, whilst still playing there and being less than favourable to some?

born a blue nose 90,721 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I think he has our best interests at heart, he is a fan after its all said n done. No denying the fact he cunted it in his second spell, but I don't understand the hatred for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendofCoop 17,254 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Still think of that horror show he had V's Raith in the Championship. Lost count of the number of air swipes he had, not to mention the ball hitting his standing foot. Am sure he had a complete jolly the second stint he had with us.

No - he’d drive you up the wall, but still had an incredible output! (Continuing to this day, against us?). Don’t blame anyone for taking a dislike after that 2nd spell - so many times he just seemed to swing his leg like he wasn’t bothered! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a cunt of a topic for me as I can't get my head around people rating him. Like I literally can't see how anyone can excuse how shite he is. And the stat thing doesn't sit with me as his stats could be doubled with someone able and on half his fee/salary. I've watched every match he played and honestly I think he's dreadful. Totally agree. Has about 6 meaningful touches a game, can't do a thing off the ball, doesn't train properly or look after himself. Not a professional footballer.

If one or two of those touches are sticking it in the back of the net, then there’s no problem. Scoring goals is how you win games. For all his faults, and there’s many, he has a knack for finding space and sticking the ball in the net - exactly like Boyd. He’s not the typical guy fans would get behind or appreciate (taking guys on or flying into tackles), so when he doesn’t score he comes in for extra criticism I think. He’s got ability, we just can’t carry a luxury player at the moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is largely a passenger in games and for such little input he'd need to be a 30 goals a season player to justify a place. I suspect there was once a decent player but he's not suitable at our level and in our league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
