Miller: I don't have boos problem

Aug 24 2008

TARGET man Kenny Miller knows he'll walk out to a storm of boos and abuse at Celtic Park next weekend.

But he'll take comfort from the fact that for once he won't be the only one copping pelters.

The Scotland striker has jumped the dyke between the two clubs TWICE now, from Rangers to Celtic and back again - a move that has earned him flak from both sets of supporters. However, he revealed that despite being booed in a Light Blue shirt on his debut, his face-to-face encounters with the fans have been full of positives.

The Scotland striker said: "Off the park and away from football I've not had a single negative reaction.

"I have met Rangers and Celtic fans - and supporters of neither club - and not taken a bit of stick."

Miller was braced for a reaction from the pack though and said: "I knew there was always going to be a bit during games but the support far outweighs the boo boys."

That will all change a week today when he walks out at Parkhead in a Rangers shirt for the first time since Gordon Strachan punted him to Derby for £3million - a year ago to the day.

He grinned: "It will change, but there'll be 60,000 there and everyone will be getting booed anyway, not just me!

"You've got to look forward to it, haven't you?"
