    If ange wanted to keep him he would have. As he said he has final say on players.

    Just because you don't believe it. I never said he scouts players, if offers come in for players over a certain value then its above his head. * like cancelling players contracts without his knowledge is a bit far fetched even for you.

    You do realise that I know that Ange is part of the club, right? I'm not saying he didn't input to a decision... But if you think he's got the power to overrule the board on ANY decision because he has total authority then you're dreaming mate... If board said Griffith was gone and Ange disagreed, he's gone... If Ange says gone and they disagree he stays, and then it's a player in the wilderness scenario.

    Pretty sure from tones coming out of Parkhead that this is unanimous though, so no issues either way

    There were * like this saying he hadn't been offered a new deal then literally a day later he was having his contract extended.

    These people know * all.

    Is that relevant to what Griffiths is accused of?

    No, it's relevant to what you posted.

    Not every sacking is because of a criminal offence

    Yep. They just take punts and if they get it right they are ‘ITK’ and if they’re wrong then it was a ‘last minute goalpost move’.

    They are all full of *.

    “I’m going out the front door with Leigh!”

    A victory for all the da’s with Griffiths tying a scarf to the Ibrox goalpost as their phone screensaver. You’ll never walk alone wee teacake. Best striker in the country on his day. Hail hail

    I think he'll be allowed to stay.

    On what grounds would they sack him?

    Surely being an unprofessional waster would have met that threshold long before they decided to give him a new deal.

    Can't seeing them dumping him now when the cops have said 'nothing here'.

    He has to be punted. No two ways about it.

    So does that mean he never sent any messages and the screen shots where lies? Or do emoji not count? Need more detail.

    Most likely he told the police he thought she was over-18 and they gave him and warning and left it at that.

    Genuinely dont think I could stomach this manky nonce even wasting in the reserves.

    If we cant terminate his contract then pay him off, do not keep him at the club.

    I’m of the opposite opinion. It’s very unlikely that the only clause by which his contract can be terminated on is a criminal charge.

    There’ll be plenty of others in there. No a lawyer but imagine things like ‘bringing the club into disrepute’, ‘behaving in a manner that is unacceptable’, ‘not upholding the values of the club’. Something along those lines.

    I’ll be very surprised and disappointed if he’s not out the door shortly.
