I see griffiths didn't like a group of fans booing him yesterday so when he scores he cups his hand to his ear what a f*d I hope we get rid of him in the summer oh I forgot it's only celtic and hibs who were ever interested in him should just release that's my opinion sorry if some don't like it
Maybe he should wear a t shirt of a religious leader under his jersey and expose it after he scores to endear him to the self righteous?.
Griffiths is at top goal scorer, he has proved himself in the SPL and will no doubt do so next season in Europe . I think we should support him as a footballer and let the club sort out any personal defects he may have .
He should never of been signed in first place. Anyone who says he should be given a 2nd chance, is a fool! No excuse for what he done and lennon is accountable for this.
Who scored a goal and had a religious leader on under their top if griffiths Is a top goal scorer why were only hibs and celtic in for him and as for scoring in Europe don't see it and putting his hands too his ears to the fans who don't get apologetic about his actions is showing no remorse for the stupidity that he has shown and also will lead to him doing it again as he sees it as he has done nothing wrong
IM a fool then, until the lad no longer has a contract with us ill back him, regardless of my really wanting to give him a slap :P
@5. You sure are a fool. What effects has his actions had on other members of the squad? What about those players who are of same race group in subject that he was spouting his rant about?
Maybe I should have said save goals, someone who comes from a nation that is prepared to back a fascist paramilitary grouping in Ukraine, and well I'm sure the self righteous would condemne the antics of a large majority of this nations football fans?
Legend indeed
As for the self elected anti Lennon/stokes/Griffiths "fool", it's best left to readers/posters to decided and comment .
Leigh griffiths is a top finisher imo. Movement In and out the box with or without the ball he has been outstanding for us since he came in January . Half the price of pukki and balde and has settled very quickly . Yes he made a mistake and was very stupid but had been punished by the club and will be by the spfl that should be the end of it . People have been mumping and moaning on this sight about celtic class and he's not what we need even you ed aren't happy but the lad ticks the boxes week in week out . Before christmas we were screaming out for a striker with pace who plays on the shoulder of defence. Let's give him a chance . getting fed up off the same old posts about griffiths he scores in 90% of the games he plays in what else do we want??
Celtic always!
@TTTS GIRUY end of day you tell me what I have said in this thread that is wrong?
On the football side of things, which I assume CFC are, Griffiths is a fine enough footballer more than capable of reaching the ratio required of a Celtic striker .
Perkybhoy you are right Leigh is one of ours . The wrongs he has done, if any are minimal, compared to Suarez . Surely the least we can do is support him .
Dn30 his actions where stupid ill informed and insensitive to people truly seeking refuge in this country but not racist,,, chris02 where do we draw the line then with any of our players, or is it a case of they are good sweep any offence commited no matter how serious under the carpet because he is "one of ours"
@TTTS absolute whopper as per. You never fail to disappoint
An explanation into why you have suggested Griffiths is not capable of reaching an acceptable goal tally per season would be interesting I'm sure?
@TTTS anyone can score goals for fun in SPL. Europe? Griffiths? Watch this space. Its going to be stokes part 2 and unable to see back of net.
You are rambling on as per usual. Nothing you post ever makes sense. You are happy to see team under-perform so long as there is an irish element in team.
@TTTS and before you go on and say griffiths is not irish, I was referring to your post a few weeks ago about lennon and stokes, how delighted you were they were involved cause they were your fellow "countrymen"
So your whopper comment is based on your ability to see into the future and some other mumble jumble non topical utterings. I bow to the superior being and all seeing eye that posts under the non de plume of DN30
Well, that is a strange comment, anyone can score goals for fun in the SPFL. we have got 3 strikers who can't and we have brought one in who does and we want to hound him out the door. I think Griffiths is a great goal scorer, great pace, 2 footed. in fact exactly what we have been missing. I think given a full season he will score 30+ and please don't forget he is only just 22. He has made some mistakes, hands up anyone who hasn't done something they regret, obviously DN30 you haven't, but that doesn't mean that we should give up on him. Liverpool didn't with Suarez and look where they are, Utd with Cantona and Keane, Utd again with Ferdinand, Chelsea with JT. the common denominator was the manager knew they were exactly what the team needed so until our 3 time championship winning manager says otherwise he gets my support. I am sure he will be spoken to, he will be given lots of help to make sure he is aware of his responsibilities and hopefully given this help and the chance he deserves we could be looking at another top striker.
