    He has been stupid, Celtic should punish him in the mean time and take it from there. Everyone deserves a second chance but it should be made clear that that sort of behaviour wont be tolerated form a Celtic player and if he continues public displays like that then we will ship him out.

    But lets give the Bhoy another chance, let him do the talking on the park from now and and put this episode behind him.

    If this was the first incident I'd be more likely to forgive.

    Stupidity is putting it lightly.

    Final warning about his conduct, but don't think he should be sacked. What he seems to have done isn't good but think some are going overboard about it.

    I agree.

    A good * * by a big dark reffugee should sort him out.

    What about Aberdeen did they apologise for their fans

    He is a hibs fan and was filmed singing a song about their rivals

    Shame on the hibs fan who cashed in on griffths.

    Bit of banter you wouldn't be upset if it was a normal guy and he wasn't representing celtic he was there as a hibs fan.
    I know you could say if he came out as a bnp supporter then it would tarnish celtic however as I have said bit of banter no foul abusive language.
    Club should speak to him and make him aware of pr and representing the club in public

    Donald Findlay singing the sash didn't affect his position as a lawyer.

    Benching him or banning him will do nothing but frustrate the player and have an adverse affect on the team. Get him to apologise, clear the air and then get on with playing football.

    First of all it is the Daily Record that bought this into the public domain . The Daily Record has a history of Celtic exclusives . This exclusive took 6 days until it was released . I know the D R may not have access to the latest I T or IT ability but even they would given time
    produce the evidence they need . Remember the thieves , liars thugs headlines . If their were sports forums then , the heads of half the Celtic team would have been on the plate .

    has hibs said anything about there fans singing hearts are going bust or their fans singing about rudi scatchel being a filthy immigrant ?

    i dont buy papers anymore so dont know if they have apolgised on behalf of their fans singing about hearts going bust and immigrants

    it would be ridiculous in my opinion if griffiths or as we call him affectionalatley "The Thumb" is the only one singled out for being bad so to speak

    so has hibs spoken about this ???

    I have obviously missed something. I have voted 'he has done nothing wrong' assuming this was about the Hearts song, what else has he done?

    I think what people need to remember is the Griffiths is basically a public figure now and is I assume to be a "role model" because he is such.

    What ordinary fans do is of no relevance sadly because Griffiths is not an ordinary fan he is a public figure who is employed by Scotland's biggest football team.

    I can wrong so please mistake me if I'm but even if we tried to do a point scoring * for tat here against other clubs (including us) and it's fans how many times has the club gone on record to apologise? From my experience it seems to only happen if the club itself gets into trouble with the authorities and get fined ect.., so unless that has happened I don't remember a case where clubs have come out and apologised if they weren't initially in trouble to begin with?

    Nah it's about the video of him singing "Rudi Skacel is a * refugee" on the same day.
