Players Keeping Calm - Boyd
Photo by Jeff Holmes Rangers striker Kris Boyd admits he and his team-mates are as much in the dark about the club's financial plight as frustrated supporters. The Ibrox outfit have acknowledged they face an "uncertain" future if they fail to raise #4million through a share issue this month. And Boyd - who only returned to Govan this summer after four years away - revealed board chiefs have yet to spell out the full details to Ally McCoist's squad. However, the 31-year-old is refusing to panic, despite reports the club may struggle to pay their September wage bill. The former Kilmarnock, Middlesbrough and Portland Timbers forward said: "I don't know if we should be concerned by the headlines. I wasn't here the first time when everything kicked off. "For me, it's come in, go about training and the games as normal. It would be wrong for me to say if this happens in two, three, four or five weeks what I will feel because I don't know. "I've not been in that position before so I can't make any comment. "From a selfish point of view, the most important thing for me to do is to keep myself in the team. I'm sure player-wise, it is the same for everybody else. "That is good for the club. The most important thing is that the players remain calm. There is nothing we can do with the off-field problems. "There has been no communication. We don't need to be told what is happening. We will continue to go about our business on the pitch. That is all we can do. "For us as players, there is nothing that has happened that we can use as an excuse as far as the games are concerned. We will train and play properly and hopefully continue to get the three points. "The biggest satisfaction for Rangers fans right now is to see their team winning and that is what we can give them." Boyd has good reason for maintaining focus on his playing duties after announcing he has not given up hope of a Scotland recall. The 18-time capped striker watched Gordon Strachan's men push world champions Germany all the way in their opening Euro 2016 qualifier in Dortmund before falling to a 2-1 defeat on Sunday. Scotland passed up a number of decent chances to earn themselves a better result and that was enough to convince Boyd he still has something to offer the national team, despite playing his football in the Scottish Championship. Boyd - who has five goals so far this season, but has yet to find the net in league action - said: "Anybody who watched that game would want to be involved in the squad. With the next game against Georgia being at Ibrox, it would be pretty special to be involved. "But the most important thing for me right now is to keep my head down, keep myself in the Rangers team and keep scoring goals. "Scotland were really unlucky against Germany, especially when you see the performance in the second half. They took the game to the world champions and were unfortunate not to win the game. "But that's what happens when you don't take your chances at that level. The Germans didn't created much but took two of the ones they did and won the game. "That's why they are world champions and why we are striving to get there. "I've got a good relationship with Gordon Strachan. He signed me for Middlesbrough. He knows what I can do and what I can't. "I'm not going to sit here and try to sell myself to Gordon Strachan. "What I will say is that if I'm playing and scoring goals, I don't think there is anybody in Scotland better at finishing than me. "There are other people with other parts of their game that they are better at than me, but at the end of the day scoring goals wins you games. "There are three or four people ahead of me - or maybe more, I don't know - who are doing it week in, week out, in England. "All I can do is score goals for Rangers and give the international manager a selection choice to make. He only named three strikers for the Germany game but, when you play the other teams in the group, you might need to use two strikers, so you never know."
