    Talk about a * overreaction :rolleyes:

    Is is any more of a joke than you dismissing him before he even plays a game in the hoops? For the record, he wasn't first choice on my list - mostly due to all of the baggage that comes with him. I'm certainly not going to complain about it though. He's shown in the past that he can score plenty goals and we need that from a striker right now. For the price he isn't a terrible option.

    Overreaction? Who was after him then? Hibs?

    Letting players like Ledley go and signing Griffiths is a step backwards. We are never progressing or moving forward by letting our top players go and buying players unproven in Europe.

    He also isn't going to put bums on seats. I don't see too much of a clamour for tickets to watch Leigh Griffiths on Sunday.

    I'll reiterate though, if he is now a Celtic player I'll get behind him and hope that he makes me eat my words.

    Hilarious that out of all the * spouted today you picked that post as an over reaction. :smiley-laughing002:

    I think it'll be a great signing. He has proved he can score goals at this level and that's what we need. Remains to be seen if he can cut it in Europe but before saying he won't be able to or he will, he needs to play in it first.

    Griffiths is a good player. I think we'd all be happy with this signing if he wasn't a total *. It really is that simple imo...

    Remember we brought in Johansen who could fill the void left by Ledley. Johansen might turn out a decent player.

    Look at it positively. We have got rid of Bangura and brought Griffiths in. Scraping the barrell here I know. Ledley is a massive loss.

    Just in from work and read the first couple of pages.

    If the bold above is the case then fair enough.

    Maybe NEVER, and Celtic have been * us all along, and will, indeed, sign Finnbo (or Aron), at the very last minute. :fear:

    It's just really galling that we are letting top players go and replacing them with maybes and might do's, you know?

    Feels like we are having to start again all the time, it's frustrating.

    All depends if anything shows up.

    If all is well, then it shouldn't take more than 2 hours I think.

    we sold hooper wanyama and wilson and replaced them with players who were unproven in europe and we still made the group stage, what more do people want.

    Are you referring to Samaras as one of the top players?

    Hopefully. That would mean him being a success and that would turn doubt into happiness.
