Kris Boyd, now OFFICIALLY the thickest pundit on the planet, decides to attack the Celtic Manager…
Eric Knott 
Kris Boyd, what can you say about this guy that hasn’t already been said?
Well, in my opening title, I think I’ve labelled him correctly.
The THICKEST pundit on the planet.
Without doubt.
Boyd is an insult to every intelligent football pundit on SKY.
I genuinely think that when the village lost it’s idiot, SKY found him.
Last night, Boyd decided to launch an all out attack on Brendan Rodgers.
In an article dripping with misplaced arrogance, Boyd admits he called something wrong.
But he doesn’t admit to anything really.
He’s too thick to call anything correctly, and too thick to realise that the majority of his predictions are so far wide of the mark, they generally boomerang back, and kick him square in the balls.
I sincerely doubt Brendan Rodgers will lower his intellect to read Boyd’s inane, vacuous ramblings in the Sun, but if he did, it would be all the motivation he’d need to steer the title back to Celtic Park.
Before I go any further, and dissect this infantile garbage, I want to make one thing clear.
Celtic, as a club, is in a bad place at the moment.
We all recognise that.
Everything that is wrong with the club, WILL eventually come to a head, because it cannot continue on the way it is.
However, right now, we the fans, need to get behind the team 110%, and drive this title over the line.
Whatever division there may be within the club can wait until this season is over.
13 more games must be played before we can really tackle the issues within the club.
Because they aren’t going away, and they will never go away as long as there’s a Lawwell at Celtic Park.
As bloggers, we all need to unify, and open everyone’s eyes to the existential threat this name poses to our club.
I read Phil Mac Ghiolla Bhain’s article on the 7th of this month, and I echo his sentiments when it comes to what Dermot Desmond needs to do.
We need to call for it to happen continuously until it does.
Until the cancer within our club is rooted out.
Like Phil, this is not personal.
I don’t know, nor have I ever met Peter Lawwell, nor do I want to for that matter.
But I see what his presence at our club is resulting in, and I want it gone.
Now, I’ve had my say on that subject, back to the matter at hand.
Kris Boyd.
From the start of his article, up to a particular point, Boyd actually made some sense.
Then again, the majority of what he has written could easily have been picked up by reading what we, the bloggers, have been writing all along.
In other words, it’s nothing we don’t already know.
It isn’t exactly investigative journalism, put it that way.
But where it all goes awry, where we’re back to the image of crayons being scrawled all over a 5 year old’s colouring book, is with this statement:
Watching Rodgers and Celtic this season has been like seeing a couple give a failed marriage one last go. It didn’t work out in the end the first time, and the second time is turning out to be a mistake.
Win or lose the title, it seems inevitable the reunion won’t last long-term.
The second time is turning out to be a mistake??
Will Boyd draw that conclusion if Celtic win a league and cup double by the end of the season?
Because his statement above is a conclusion, and it’s a conclusion he’s in no position to come to.
If there’s one thing we all know, you write off Celtic at your peril, even when they’re as wounded as they are now.
I tend to agree with him on the failed marriage point, but in a different context, the reunion between Lawwell and Rodgers.
We all should have known that was never going to work.
That’s why Dermot Desmond needs to deal with it.
Reading the rest of Boyd’s article, you get the impression that he is absolutely reveling in the turmoil at Celtic at the moment.
This is manna from heaven for a thicko like Boyd.
But you know what the beautiful thing in all of this is?
Boyd rarely, if ever, gets his predictions right.
He and Hugh Keevins are like two peas in a pod in that regard.
As useful as a set of pedals on a wheelchair when it comes to their journalistic ability.
They are both the epitome of what’s wrong with Scottish Mainstream Sports Journalism.
As Sybil once said in Fawlty Towers, “I have seen more intelligent creatures than you lying on their backs at the bottom of ponds! I’ve seen better organized creatures than you running ’round farmyards with their heads cut off!“
Every time I hear that statement, I think of Keevins and Boyd.
Two Village Idiots who somehow infiltrated their way into journalism and punditry.
Both of them steal a wage and it must be galling for decent, hard working journalists and pundits.
Boyd concludes his piece of drivel with this, and it really is stunningly stupid:
Yet, from a position of strength, Rodgers has somehow managed to steer the team towards trouble.
Remember, he told fans “I’ll see you back here in May” on the day he returned.
That was a nod towards a potential title party at the end of the season.
If Celtic continue to play like they did at Hibs, the only thing punters will be seeing in May is their manager’s exit.
I’ll correct that first line for him:
“Yet, from a position of strength, the Board has somehow managed to steer the team towards trouble.”
They are the ones who have weakened the team.
The board have systematically removed key players from a treble winning side, and replaced them with projects.
Very few of which have managed to make the grade.
They are the people who ignored Rodgers’ requests for quality players in the transfer window.
Just as they lucked their way into finding Ange Postecoglou, they might just have lucked their way into making two decent acquisitions in Nicolas Kuhn and Adam Idah.
But as I clearly pointed out in my article on Thursday, the acquisition of Adam Idah on loan will benefit Norwich, far more than us, if he turns out to be a success.
Whether we’ll see Rodgers exit in May, or land a league and cup double, remains to be seen.
But based on past experiences, I know what I’d be putting my money on.
And it ain’t Rodgers’ exit.
It’ll be on Boyd getting it wrong.
Yet again…
Boyd is a twat, he knows exactly what he is doing. Unfortunately, I don’t think he’s as daft as he seems he plants wee seeds in our heads and watches them grow. As you said our biggest problem isn’t them it’s ourselves. We have let them live once and it seems we are going to give them another lifeline by giving them a chance at CL money. Desmond is the common thread through all this and Lawell is there at his behest to .keep the company viable. Lawell is doing what his boss has told him to do. Desmond is the problem. Boyd is still a pryck, only a pryck with an agenda
As much as Boyd writes and speaks garbage you are no different. As a so called Celtic supporter to continually point fingers when you have no concrete evidence of what happens behind the scenes brings you down to Byods level because all you do is brainwash those who think like you.
If you are one of these so called bloggers who get invited to club press conferences why dont you have the balls to ask the question? What in the non executive chairmans role in the recruitment process? Quite a simple question without being derogatory. Then you will have something concrete to write about.
I also doubt you have the balls to publish this comment on your blog as you dont like being challenges
Bring it on Mike.
Boyd is definitely the pricks prick. Not only is he a bigot, a biased hun and dripping in green-eyed acidic Orc vinegar, he’s also a fraud. This statement “Watching Rodgers and Celtic this season has been like seeing a couple give a failed marriage one last go. It didn’t work out in the end the first time, and the second time is turning out to be a mistake.” was altered slightly, but was plagerised from a Walter Matthau film way back in the 60s. Boyd is without doubt the dullest ceramic in the dusty hun trophy room. No charisma, no intelligence or talent, no insight or relevance. He remains exactly what he was on the playing field, small and insignificant.
Quite simply. It’s time for Brendan to go. He has damaged irrevocably as far as this season goes the unbelievably brilliant Kyogo and replaced him with a third or fourth choice English Championship side centre forward who can score penalties. Let’s face it honestly, it’s been disastrous. He has turned a competitive and good team into a noncompetitive well below average team instead of a really competitive very good team. He did it at Leicester and he did it at Liverpool. He talks a good game, he knows all the answers but in reality, he is not quite good enough. He blamed the players, then said they were good. He blamed the board, then said the board was made up of clever people who made the right decisions. All who have eyes to see and a brain to think with, know it’s not the players and though easy to shoot at, it’s not the board. It’s Brendan who is not as good a manager as he or others think. God bless them all and I say this reluctantly, but it’s not gone well for him and it’s time for him to go.
💯 spot on ! Desmond is the problem & has been for some time . He needs to leave & sell his shares to someone who will actually spend serious money on players & finish the damn stadium & take Celtic to the next level & progression to the latter stages in CL .
Its down to the board and desmond once again from a position of strengh we have let a team go to the dogs and let a team of degenerates challenge us ……lawell a scumbag allowed back in to destroy our club and all it stands for
I was enjoying the article until you fell as low as Boyd has gone when you said in regard to him and Keevins
“As useful as a set of pedals on a wheelchair when it comes to their journalistic ability”
I needn’t point out the tacky
200% what chapsie says they want rangers and Celtic to compete as a business not as football teams .
Everyone at Celtic knows how deep it lies , the true staff ( not the huns without the bus fare or the badge). We know and we have known for a long time,
Rogers went to the French alps for the last 4 days of the transfer window angry that players he wanted moved on and others bring in having been told there was money available I’ve heard he is on his way and wee Chesney is on his way back temporarily
I hope im wrong but the manager isnt happy and who can blame him lawell and co have massively let him and us down
Celtic 1st Celtic forever
HH
I don’t understand why anyone would care what the fat boy says. He’s just a gobby shitehawk in a privileged position. He has two purposes – to big up pretend fc and to do down Celtic. The more attention we give him, the longer he will be employed. He knows nothing about football, less about Celtic and has the analytical ability of a plastic spoon.
Poor choices…
Desmond made poor choices to bring back Peter & Brendan. Peter done a good job for 15 year or so and Brendan had 1 good season. Fact is that neither of them had the ability or just refuse to adapt & improve the team. Brendan’s football is boring and as ambitious as Peter is in the transfer windows. If Ange was still in charge of this same team, then we would be out of sight of all other teams. Granted we lost some talented players in the summer, but not so much that we go from a Treble winning team, to the uninspired, lethargic group of players we’re currently witnessing. Everyone needs to stop complaining & moping about the previous 2 windows as they’re now history and all the negativity does nothing to enhance our ability of retaining the League & Scottish Cup. Brendan needs to stop blaming everyone and feeling sorry for himself, but instead, get the team motivated, get the fire back in the bellies and finally put them zombie Neanderthals back in their boxes.
Finishing this season with a double should be our only objective until May. Then and only then, should we be talking about how we plan to strengthen the team for next season.
I don’t believe for a single minute that Celtic will spend large amounts in any window, however, if the other lot get access to £60m+, you better believe they will spend the biggest chunk of it on their team, at which we will have to match or find & buy real quality at affordable prices. If we don’t, then it could be our turn to be picking up 2-3 trophies every 12 years, which doesn’t bear thinking about.
Get behind the team.
Park the negativity till the summer.
PRIORITY #1 – Get the League won…
