BREAKING:Former Rangers striker and club icon Kris Boyd has issued a stark warning to his old side: their troubling away form could ultimately decide the Scottish Premiership title race.

With the championship battle intensifying against fierce rivals Celtic and surging challengers Hearts, Boyd believes Rangers’ inconsistency on the road is the one flaw that could prove fatal in the run-in.
Speaking after another frustrating result away from Ibrox, Boyd highlighted a growing pattern: Rangers look dominant at home but far less convincing when travelling — a contrast he says title winners simply cannot afford.
“You can’t rely solely on Ibrox to win you the league,” Boyd stressed. “Championship teams go anywhere and impose themselves. Right now, Rangers aren’t doing that consistently enough.”
Away Form Becoming a Title Liability
While Rangers have built momentum in front of their own supporters, dropped points on the road have allowed rivals to close the gap and maintain pressure at the top. Boyd noted that away fixtures against mid-table sides — often seen as routine wins for contenders — have instead become stumbling blocks.
That inconsistency, he argues, shifts the psychological edge toward Hearts and Celtic, both of whom have shown greater resilience away from home this season.
Mentality Question Raised
Boyd’s concern goes beyond tactics or personnel — he believes it’s a mentality issue. Title-winning sides, he says, carry authority regardless of venue, atmosphere, or opponent.
For Rangers, the challenge is clear: transform Ibrox dominance into travelling ruthlessness. Failure to do so could leave them chasing rather than leading when the decisive weeks arrive.
Title Race Entering Crucial Phase
With fixtures tightening and margins thinning, every away trip now carries added weight. Boyd’s message is simple but urgent: fix the away-day blues — or risk watching the title slip away.
