craig 5,199 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Rangers striker Kris Boyd is expected to be sidelined for around three weeks with an eye injury sustained during the Old Firm derby. He was forced out of the action at Ibrox with concussion and a heavy blow to his eye following a clash of heads with Celtic's Landry N'Guemo. Scans have revealed he has not suffered a fractured cheekbone, however he does have a small fracture to his eye socket. Boyd will seek advice from a specialist on Wednesday but does not expect surgery to be required. However, he is now likely to miss the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier League game against St Johnstone and the visit of Unirea Urziceni in the Champions League. Meanwhile, youngster Andrew Little has been told he could be out for up to six weeks with a hamstring injury picked up in the opening minute of the 2-1 win over Celtic. Little told http://www.rangers.co.uk: "The first ball they played from the kick-off was a diagonal one right down my throat. "Zheng Zhi came across and I sprinted to head it and felt a really bad spasm in my hamstring. "In my head all I wanted to do was get on with the game but I was also thinking, 'Did that just happen to me?'. "It was one of those things were I hoped it was just a bit of cramp. "But I had a similar problem six weeks before so I knew what it was." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza_8 233 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Very predictable. Not really. He was banging in the goals last season. I didn't see him starting this season off so slowly. Compared to previous seasons where he's started off scoring goals left, right and centre, this season he's hardly had a sniff of anything. Not predictable in the slightest, just saying how I see it. I like Boyd, he scores goals but he just doesn't look interested this season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller has looked pants so far as well, but somehow stepped up & scored our only 2 goals against the mopes on Sunday. Boyd will come good & start scoring again. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his defence, he's not getting a decent run in the team to find any sort of form but like I said earlier, he looks like he wants to be elsewhere when he's playing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,524 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Leaves us a little bit short up top. However with Lafferty returning and Naismith improving all the time we should be OK. The International break might work in our favour for a change:box: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 743 Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I hope so. In his defence, he's not getting a decent run in the team to find any sort of form but like I said earlier, he looks like he wants to be elsewhere when he's playing. Could it be now that pal Barry Ferguson has gone he seems lost?? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
