If I was a Kilmarnock fan it would really get on my tits to be honest, but to flip it he's having his best season since he left us the first time and is doing the damage for Kilmarnock even against us so it's no effecting him. I take your point about him talking about other players he's playing against but provided it's the truth I honestly don't mind, I encourage it in the hope it motivates them. You could look at it another way and say Boyd should be doing our teamtalks for us with his comments.

He’s played for Killie but he’s a die hard bluenose, more power to him not enough of his fellow ex players are following suit.

True he's never hid from being one of us ?

He's right even if he never kicked a ball in an old firm game himself.

He got one goal more than Morelos....

I don't disagree with what boyd is saying. What I completely disagree with is a pro for another club current playing against us commenting on our players. That is not right. Ex player or not.

I get your point entirely.

Steve Clarke’s probably got his hands over his eyes, muttering ‘what’s he saying - they’ll murder us when we go to Ibrox!’

Then he’ll catch a grip of himself & remember what sort of Rangers set up he’s dealing with.....

Needed said though, but it is unusual to be so blunt about people you still have to play against.

[sassaaaa 11,406]

Fuck all wrong in anything he says , he's speaking as a fan of the club who has had enough , just like most of us.

Boyd cares that much about the club that he couldnt be bothered in his second spell, and admits himself that he was a disgrace......

Hes part of the problem as well

But he was prepared to admit it.

Compare & contrast.....

[Orange Persson 547]

   Typical cheap journo, sticking the oar in when we are down for the sake of his latest profession..........money for writing

Do these cunts think they are some sort of prophets, stating the bleedin obvious?  Oh yeah, I forgot....he is a supporter.  Spot on Boydy, nail on head, bang on, get ripped in, etc etc. All this, while you made fortunes from The Rangers,  now have a job scoring goals against us and another job helping us all out with your comments.

All this while having a last spell with us, which was as pathetic as some of our worse signings and also being termed a lazy cunt by Sir Walter when at his peak. I have no respect for this set up of writing a commentary while playing in a league against us. It is cheap, obvious exploitation and he can get to fuck with his ghost "observations". We don't need it at this time, especially from someone who was anything but a model professional.

[Gazza1212 1,212]

Boyd had said nothing in that article that anyone with an ounce of common sense can't see for themselves. 

Bottom line is .... THIS BOARD IS TO BLAME for where we are. The decision making has been nothing short of deplorable and will cost us for years to come. We were promised  "transparent governance" and investment and what did we get?  No one was more delighted than me when they managed to prize Ashley's grip from the tills but as far as I can see that was the last thing they actually got right. 

The longer we (the support) allow them to remain at the helm the longer we can look forward to more of the same.....its that simple. We have allowed ourselves to morph into some sort of joke figure of a club all too reminiscent of ce**ic of the 90's

Forget all talk of we deserve better, we've been through enough already. I'm more than sure the hardest part is still to come. To move forward though we have to realise this current board have failed us miserably and will continue to fail us if left unchallenged. 

That's it guys. The writing has been on the wall for long enough for those who care enough to look. If you have any hopes of dragging our once proud club out of the malaise we find ourselves in then understand this... Action is what's needed here not more words because we've had enough of that already. 

[folkestoneger 8,135]

Maybe its time for some of these rich "Bears" who earned a damn good living from us to cough up and invest.

Put their money upfront and they will get my attention

I think he’s a supporter who just happens to be employed as a player (as opposed to an office worker or a pipe fitter) elsewhere and it’s from that perspective he’s talking. His main target is the poor leadership and the morale, neither of which are the fault of the playing staff

[derekweir29 505]

Spot on with everything said.

If he cares about the club he would have been tried a bit harder when he was here and living the dream.... 

[markem 7,251]

Don’t disagree with most Boyd has said, glad he’s put it out there and I hope it adds to the pressure that needs to build on certain individuals.

The hypocrisy of the guy however is something to behold.  ‘I took the club and support for a absolute ride now here I am calling out others’  - no shame whatsoever.   

 

 

[Pearson83 1,059]

This is absolutely spot on by Boyd and speaks like a fan. He was decent enough to man up and say his second time here was a shambles but the main point is the here and now and he nails it! 

[minstral 5,375]

We know he was lazy and could not be bothered, but he is speaking as a fan, and is only telling the truth. All King cares about is getting his money back, and then he will be gone.

[Moody Blue Legend 61,460]

£250 p/w?   Regardless of anyone’s thoughts of Bates as a player, to offer a first team player that offer is total disrespect.  Not surprised he fucked off.

I don't mind anyone having a say as long as it is respectful and honest - he always seems to be in line with that.

Look at some of the trolls currently employed in the media and Boyd does seem to be fairly balanced (as does Commons).

if he wants to comment on other teams and players then he should retire and go into full time punditry. This half way house is not on.

100% he should shut up while still under contract at another club

His club don't seem to be bothered , seems its a few pussies on here that are getting upset by his outrageous comments.

If he were still wi us he'd be suspended,no free speech at Ibrox......sometimes looking in from the outside and knowing how things work,gives a man an entitled opinion.

[Bristoe1872 2,551]

Absolutely 100% spot on from Boyd.

Just about every article he’s wrote he’s owned upto how bad he was second spell for us, took responsibility and even apologised - what more do you want from him?

at least he’s accepted responsibility unlike the Ian Black’s, Fosters, Cammy Bell’s, Jon Daly’s of this world who all signed on decent money and were pish in the lower leagues for us 

over and above all that, he was shite, so what? Yesterday I listed every player we’ve signed since Smith left there was almost 100 and only 12 or 13 could be considered a success and some of them was at a stretch so Boyd isn’t an isolated figure there but if anyone of them poor signings were to come out and accept responsibility and also tell the truth about King and the Rangers board I’d applaud them too - if the message is right rather than the messenger that’s all that matters

Players currently playing for other SPFL teams should keep their mouth shut. What's happening at ibrox has fuck all to do with them , ex-player or not.

So as a fan he’s no right to an opinion? This is getting to the twilight zone stage that almost took off in that we deserve better thread too - we shouted for years we wanted people with voices in the media to put pressure on and ask questions someone does and because he’s employed by Kilmarnock he should shit up? Again no fucking wonder we struggle to get anywhere - comments like yours and a couple of others is exactly what he’s referring to at the start of his article
