Speaking on Sky Sports, the former Rangers striker was brutally honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI said at half-time it was a bang-average performance from a bang-average team,\u201d Boyd said. \u201cThey\u2019ve come to Celtic Park and silenced the lion\u2019s den. In the second half they were outstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf there\u2019s ever been a game of two halves, that was it. Rohl fixed his mistakes at half-time and now looks like he\u2019s got that Rangers team playing for him. The other manager looks like he could be on a flight home tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boyd ended with a final tease, adding: \u201cThere does seem to be an atmosphere around the place, but if I were Celtic, I wouldn\u2019t be making any rash decisions. Patience is a virtue.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kris Boyd and Rangers star ridicule Wilfried Nancy with brutal troll over two mega gaffes\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3086,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[62,467,58],"class_list":{"0":"post-3087","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-uncategorized","8":"tag-celtic","9":"tag-kris-boyd","10":"tag-rangers"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/0_Screen-Shot-2026-01-03-at-160251.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3087","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3087"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3087\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3086"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/legitsportnews.com.ng\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
