1. Who the fuc does he think he is,the traitorous scum hahaha Just had to say it,temptation was too strong fer me tae resist lol Burley is making a mistake as Boyd and McFadden would be in the starting 11,he's entitled to be upset.
2. I can understand Boyd,s decision after yesterday. Its a real pity, cause we all know Scotland are in dire need of good strikers.
3. I have to say that's sad news as Kris Boyd is a good player, we can only continue to support the national team though.
4. the open goal ,yesterday ,boyd would have scored no bother ,no wonder hes bitter ,the big diddy walked straught into the team,should have been on the bench .
5. In my opinion Boyd is a good sub. Smith doesnt fancy him for a starting role and neither does Burley. Great finisher and decent in the air but too slow and not the most mobile. If he doesnt want to be considered for Scotland, Big Deal!
6. agree with boyd on this thought he was a sure starter and was more shocked he did no even come on as a sub now burley will have to defend the desision
7. Well it's up to him to decide, but pretty soon he's not going to be playing any football at all. Why if he is this frustrated at Scotland limiting his chances of playing, does he sit and take it at Rangers for so long, why in line with this Scotland outburst, has he not requested a transfer from Rangers, double standards in my book.
8. Damn right.....its rediculous!! We needed a goal so he brough on Fletcher and Iwelumu and left Boydie off. The man should be on from the start wi his goals to games ratio. I was happy when Burley took over....now he just taking the piss.
9. Burley is fast becomming another Berti Vogts his squad choices are rediculous and leaving a man out that has a career goals to game ratio of 142 in 199 played is rediculous and he hasny even played the full 90 in most of these games, while he might not be a 90 minute player he is a massive impact man and would surely have netted the opportunity gifted to the new boy
10. I think he's right.Burley will be sacked I am not confident going into any game under this manager,there have been many like him over the years who overlook our best players,they are always unsuccessful. He won't leave Rangers at the moment because Walter is the best in the business at man management.Kris has been told what is required of him and seems to be up to the challenge of fighting for a place in the team.He is not just being ignored.
11. I agree it was wrong that he didnt play but surely a knee jerk reaction. Second gers player in recent weeks to throw their toys out the pram. No-one has a divine right to play. Would have expected a better attitude than that. Also he is barely getting a game with Rangers so is he not going to question Smith as well then?
12. any man who turns his back on his country is indeed a traitor.he should be pushing for a place instead of gurning
13. no wonder, i dont blame him. boyd is far from a traitor. burley however is trying to make his own team here, and making a fool of his players in the process. kirk "limited ability" broadfoot kris "play a dud before him" boyd there was also the mcculloch situation where the sfa were willing to let a story go out which was simply untrue. he also has made fletcher captain? what about weir, caldwell or mcfadden? burley has messed this team up since he took over. walter and alex had made a team capable of getting results and beating the big boys. george however, seems to want to do his thing. if it aint broke then why try to fix it? might as well give up on qualification while he is in charge. it wont happen.
14. if he disnae want to play for scotland,he will be perceived as a traitor by many..u know it and i know it.pity fletcher disnae want to chuck it.he widnae b a sad loss
15. You are sitting on the bench as a striker. Your team needs a goal to progress. Your manager turns to Fletcher. Why is it international managers think they know a players better position than the club manager. Fergie, arguably Scotland's most successful manager knows Fletcher's strengths and they are not as a centre forward. What is Boyd supposed to do, I hope he doesn't make a rash decision here which he may regret in the future, but if he does, I will back him as he is a Rangers player.
16. Its a bloody disgace that burley left boyd on the bench, when that walloper missed that chance, boyd would have put that away no problem So in my humble opinion burley is an ar**hole boyd should tell him to go F**k himself
17. It's selfish
