Leigh Griffiths' Celtic days are numbered; new contract nowhere near earned

Originally published at: Leigh Griffiths' Celtic days are numbered; new contract nowhere near earned - 67 Hail Hail

Leigh Griffiths has been given so many opportunities by everyone connected with Celtic, but this season he’s let us down badly. Neil Lennon was clearly extremely disappointed with him yesterday. Griffiths was hooked midway through the second half after another ineffective display up top alongside Odsonne Edouard. After the game, Lennon spoke to BBC Scotland,…

He’s one of only a few when he’s on the ball you feel something’s going to happen. His passes are usually good and intelligent.

That being said, he’s not worth the hassle. Time to go.

Sadly there aren`t many of our payers having a good season. Lets see how they fare under the new manager, that is those who are still there.

Bolingoli trip to Spain incident, Griff coming back out of shape, a few unnamed players at the start of the season letting the manager know they no longer wanted to be there. For me this points to the manager having weak discipline over his squad and zero respect from the players. We as fans have been absolutely failed by the board and management due to the fact we where going into the season of the 10 with 1/3 of the squad not wanting to be there, 1/3 of the squad not putting in the effort and the other 1/3 not hitting any sort of form due to rotation. Tally that up with the cluelessness of the manager taking half a season to find his best selection and formation and quite frequently throwing the players under the bus and taking not one shred of blame ever, it’s just been an embarrassing mess. Board, management and plenty of players have treated us like idiots and to think not one thing has changed to shake things up is disgraceful. I’ll find it very difficult to renew my ST if the right changes aren’t made between now and the end of the season.

I just don`t recall a Celtic team ever with so many players apparently wanting to leave, at least publicly. Its all very sad and problematic for the new manager.

He’s definitely on the clear out list come the end of the season for me, his time has come and gone at Celtic.

Unprofessional, unreliable and is simply not worth the hassle anymore.

If you don’t get played you ain’t gonna to be match fit simple. The rest of the squad positions are easy to play in when coming back into the team. A striker needs games and to get the ball from greedy midfielders who hit row Z? Then a useless hun Ref & linesman = Not many goals.

Well said fello Celt, its good to see a fello supporter refusing to swallow and walking away from this nonsensically deluded ‘Faithfully Blind and Obedient Without Question’
lunacy. Celtic fans need to wake up and start standing up for themselves, stop allowing a money-grabbing Tory board to play on their emotional connection to the club, to blind them into handing over their hard-earned money.
