Former Rangers striker Kris Boyd criticizes manager Philippe Clement for blaming the referee after the team dropped another two points in a 2-2 draw against Hibernian.
Fuming Kris Boyd has told Philippe Clement to bin the ref excuses after Rangers threw away another two points on the road against Hibs. After putting in an impressive performance against Celtic at Ibrox, the key word was consistency for the Belgian boss as he looked to somehow claw a route back into a Scottish Premiership title fight.
It appeared that Clement would get his wish after Hamza Igamane's double saw the Light Blues race into a 2-0 lead - and despite Martin Boyle giving Hibs a lifeline before the break Rangers appeared to be in cruise control.

The man in the middle would be backed up by Kevin Clancy in the VAR room before Martin Boyle levelled the game. In-form Igamane would give the visitors a lead once again - before Rocky Bushiri headed in an equaliser late in the blockbuster clash in the capital. Following the full-time whistle, Clement would rage about the decision to award the Easter Road men a spot kick as he insisted that he wanted an explanation over the call. But an irked Boyd wasn't having it, stating in the Sky Sports studio after watching the post-match debrief 'Philippe Clement can go on about it all he wants - his team got back ahead and failed to see out another game of football. 'You feel as if you are just repeating yourself - Rangers away from home just hasn't been good enough. You can look at the incidents, and listen it's soft. It's clever play from Josh Campbell to put his leg in there to ask the question of John Beaton. John Beaton has decided it's a penalty kick, it's never going to be overturned. 'David Gray will think it's a penalty, and Philippe Clement won't. The reality is Rangers got themselves back in front and failed to see out another game of footbal
