Kris Boyd, the former Rangers striker, has had his protests dismissed after questioning why Celtic’s Nicolas Kuhn was not shown a red card for his exuberant celebrations following a late goal against Ross County. Kuhn’s dramatic 88th-minute winner ignited wild celebrations in the away end at Dingwall, preserving Celtic’s perfect start to the Premiership season.
However, Boyd expressed frustration that Kuhn, who was already on a yellow card, was allowed to leave the field and jump into the crowd without receiving a second booking. Boyd remarked, “The rules must have changed because I thought he got booked. The rules must have changed…” His comments reflect a growing concern among Rangers fans regarding officiating consistency, especially in high-stakes matches.
As discussions about officiating and player conduct continue, Boyd’s comments highlight the need for clarity around the rules and their enforcement in the game. Despite his grievances, it appears the officials upheld their interpretation of the rules in this instance, leaving Boyd and other Rangers supporters disappointed but reminded that football regulations are subject to change.
