My view on that is, you think further down the line, there may be high-profile managers who would look at the treatment of Rogers and how vicious that attack was on Brendan Rodgers, and think twice about maybe coming to Celtic and their reputations being damaged if there’s a fallout.
Chris Sutton presented the sensible balanced case. In the studio Lennon and Boyd were like a tag team with one idea being shared. Operation demonise Brendan!
Kris Boyd wasn’t cracking many gags when he provided Sky Sports News with his verdict on the 2-0 defeat from Hearts at Ibrox.Normally the former Kilmarnock striker is the life and soul of the party, sharing the laughs with Paul Merson and Clinton Morrison with his in-depth football knowledge topped…
It is very obvious that Martin has no friends across the Scottish media, he has an arrogance and contempt whenever he is put in front of the cameras and microphones that has switched off a naturally sympathetic audience.
Despite falling for the spin and hype over Micky Beale and Phil Clement only to end up looking like the thick cousin of the Village Idiot the former Scotland striker just can’t bring himself to predict a Celtic title win.
Boyd’s team managed to drop points in 16 SPFL matches, they never won in four visits to St Mirren and Hibs, under two different managers they went seven matches at Ibrox without a victory. The did from Southampton isn’t going to resolve that in less than three months.
Only an Aberdeen win at Hampden can spare Boyd from the horrors of a sixth Celtic treble in nine seasons, a period that covers his decision to concentrate on media work.
Meanwhile, in the real world Celtic pick up the trophies, 120 in total with this season’s SPFL Premiership title the 55th time that they’ve been champions of Scotland. A number that even Boyd knows the significance of.
While this goes on loyal bears can vent their anger at Sutton, meanwhile the culprits for their demise hide out in the Blue Room , waiting to sup out of the cherished Loving Cup, toasting a monarch just back from Rome with no intention of ever setting foot inside Ibrox.
50 is a landmark, 60 less so, 10 is notable but 55? No one cared or cares but if that lot want to make a song and dance over 55, if they want to trash Glasgow city centre, if they want to vandalise statues over that number then it is…
