    He was also prejudged by many allegedly Celtic fans because in their eyes he was, and I quote " An ugly little * ", as if that makes any marked difference to what a player may or not do on a football field.

    Griffiths strikes me as having the correct mindset and mentality to do well at any level of football ( Champions League included), and he is living the dream as a Celtic player. The problem may occur in the future if he starts dreaming of new pastures.

    I agree with your last point to some degree because he has been somewhat wasteful in front of goal for us but he also strikes me as a striker who can create his own opportunities which is something hooper rarely did. Whereas hooper was just a pure finisher leigh can create with a little dribble, trick, or long range strike. I'm hoping leigh can bring that part of his game into europe.

    Great that he made the front page. Did natural disasters, famine, war and ecological and economic meltdown have a day off?

    Just a shame that it wasn't Build a Bonfire that he sang. :smiley-laughing002:

    Seen a few twitter rumours that he was also filmed singing that 'Rudi Skacel is a refugee' song which is probably not true as that would've been the front page if it were.

    Anyone else see these rumours? Hoping its a load of pish because he is playing well but if it is true it'll turn fans against him considering his past.

    I thought you were concerned by us signing a player who had his off-field track record?

    Any "fan" who turns against a Celtic player because of rumours and/or redtop headlines needs to have a word with himself.
