With the Ibrox side 9 points off Celtic and Aberdeen, Village Idiot Boyd believes his crayon scribbling will result in the sack for Philippe Clement..

Kris Boyd is in rant over-drive, he’s having a complete meltdown.

And reading his article in the Sun this morning, you get the impression he’s becoming unhinged.

His crayon scribbling is more erratic than ever, and he sounds like a jilted kid having a good bitch about his teenage ex who’s just done the dirt on him.

What’s even funnier is the fact that he actually believes his inane ramblings will result in Clement getting the boot at Ibrox.

They might be a lot of things over at Ibrox, but one thing they’re not, is stupid enough to listen to Kris Boyd.

The opening paragraph of the article really made me laugh:

I've listened to you spout nonsense after games when you seem to think folk are buttoned up the back.

Yes, you're not the only one guilty of mistakes at Ibrox.

But you're the one picking the team and sending out the players who are producing performances which are simply nowhere near good enough.

Spout nonsense??

Spare a thought for all of us who have to listen to your shite on Sky Sports week in, week out, Boyd.

And he’s right when he says Clement is not the only one guilty of mistakes at Ibrox.

The biggest mistake John Bennett made before running for the hills was locking Clement into an extended contract.

This locked them into a footballing death spiral, which culminated in them falling 9 points behind Aberdeen and Celtic on Wednesday night.

Now, a club that needs a £4 million loan to keep the lights on cannot even contemplate paying Clement off to leave the club.

So it’s shit or bust.

They say Pittodrie is a shit pile, but it wasn’t Aberdeen who were knee deep in shite last Wednesday night.

That much was very clear.

But the Ibrox faithful needn’t worry, Kris Boyd has confirmed it’s all over:

No, it's over. It's finished. Your time is up.

Trust me, Rangers supporters are sick and tired of your guff and there is now no way back. Last night at Pittodrie was the final insult for me.

It’s just a shame that Boyd has about as much clout as a wet fart over at Ibrox.

So he can be ranting on about final insults all he wants, I get the feeling he’ll have to face a few more of them before this gets any better.

If you think this is bad, Boyd becomes completely unhinged as the article goes on.

I can just imagine him scribbling vigourously with his crayons the further he gets into it.

Getting angrier and angrier, more and more wound up.

Take a look at this:

To talk about a toe-nail offside decision beggars belief. No-one cares. For the life of me I cannot understand why the press officers haven't stopped you coming out with this garbage.

Or maybe they have, and you have decided to ignore that advice.
But then there has been so much nonsense coming out of your mouth in your media conferences.

We keep hearing about progression and players improving.
About how this is a young squad and things are going to get better once they have time to settle at the club.

But it's nonsense. Good players don't need time to bed in. Eight out of your starting line-up were already at the football club when you arrived and a few of them weren't regulars last season.
You talk about getting to the next transfer window.

But you've already wasted an absolute fortune, so why should you be trusted with money again?

I get the feeling poor Kris Boyd doesn’t really like Philippe Clement.

He appears a tad agitated in that particular segment.

But his rantings become wilder and wilder as the article goes on.

Boyd is hurting and he can’t hide it.

Now, I’m not going to reproduce the whole article.

You can read it via the link provided.

But it appears to me that Kris is starting to “get it”.

And by that, I mean, just like for Barry Ferguson, there is a painful reality hitting.

I wrote about the impact that painful reality is having on Bazza in an article last week.

After 12 years, the stark realisation is hitting them that this just isn’t the club they played for.

Guys like Ferguson and Boyd have been clinging to the love of a ghost.

A club that died 12 years ago.

For 12 years, they’ve tried desperately to believe that the current entity is the same as the old entity.

They convinced themselves that it was.

But in the last couple of years, they’ve seen that very belief fade before their eyes.

Piece by piece, any resemblance of the old club has been stripped away.

The financial doping has reached it’s pinnacle, it can no longer be carried any further.

It has resulted in a financial black hole that has swallowed over £140 million in 12 short years.

And what have they gotten in return for that £140 million loss?

One Covid title and two cups.

As I’ve pointed out many times on this blog, total prize money for winning a treble in Scotland is about £3.5 million.

£3.5 million spread out from 2021 to 2023, at a cost of £140 million to the club?

They have literally burnt through £136.5 million for a domestic return of £3.5 million.

Insanity does not aptly describe it.

Now, all of a sudden, somebody has realised this doesn’t work.

In order to survive, they’ve got to stop pretending they’re something they’re not.

Kris Boyd’s rantings in his article show his inability to come to terms with this reality.

Barry Ferguson is the same.

It’s time to let go of the past, and accept the reality of what they are now.

Here is the real truth.

Last Wednesday night, the Ibrox side finally came of age.

They transitioned into their true selves.

Into what they really are.

A run of the mill Scottish Premiership side.

A side that might win the odd cup competition, but one that is now ill-equipped and pretty much incapable of mounting a serious title challenge.

Kris Boyd can rave and rant about having had enough of Philippe Clement, but is he going to foot the bill for the Belgian manager’s pay off?

Barry Ferguson can mouth off about what he’d do if he was in that dressing room.

But he’s not, and if he was, the majority of players in there now would probably tell him to go fuck himself if went off on one.

THIS IS NOT THE CLUB HE PLAYED FOR!

This is Ibrox stripped of everything that once made them what they were.

Stripped entirely of “other people’s money”.

So Boyd and Ferguson can either accept that, along with the klanbase, or continue to delude themselves that they’re something they’re not.

Which will only result in continuous pain and angst.

Acceptance is the first step on the road to recovery.

Take it from me, by 1994, I had accepted Celtic were no longer what they used to be.

I accepted there was a long road to recovery ahead.

That was 30 years ago.

Boyd can wish Clement away all he wants.

The next guy will face the same, if not more complicated problems.

There is no easy fix here.

Other than acceptance.

Accept what you now are, and then maybe you can become what you wish to be.

Anything else is just a fruitless endeavour.

If you had gone through this process in 2012, there is a good chance you would now be giving us a run for our money.

Humility always trumps hubris.

Ibrox is now learning that the hard way.

And yes, they finally came of age on a shit-pile on a cold night in Aberdeen.
