I very much suspect Celtic fans will not take kindly to being lectured by a guy who has taken the absolute piss out of them for the past 2 years in terms of effort and fitness.

A toady, waster, junkie, chancer in chief. They aren't impressed.
 
He used to be their most dangerous forward, he could score from out the blue at any minute.

Now he is starting to look done, slow and predictable. He is still capable of getting in a good strike, but that is all he has left.
 
The interesting thing I've noticed with the celtic players recent interviews, is that they go put their way to say how good the coaching is from Lennon and Kennedy.
To me that means ite actually shite.
 
“We want the gaffer to stay for as long as possible because we feel he is still the right man for the job,” said Griffiths, in the wake of reports the club were minded to stick with the status quo until the summer.

Of course he wants him to stay for as long as possible. No manager with any self-respect or even the most basic minimum standards, would accept the sheer lack of professionalism shown by Griffiths year in year out.

Leigh Griffiths has voiced his backing for Celtic’s beleaguered bosses, Neil Lennon and Peter Lawwell.

The Hoops striker has received plenty of backing from the manager and chief executive respectively during the periods he has struggled at Celtic Park.

And after seeing the two men come under fire for the ill-fated trip to Dubai, and the form slump that has followed, he has urged critics to try to keep a sense of perspective.

“We want the gaffer to stay for as long as possible because we feel he is still the right man for the job,” said Griffiths, in the wake of reports the club were minded to stick with the status quo until the summer.

“There has been talk about his position, and Mr Lawwell’s position, too.

“But you need to remember what these guys have done for the club.

“Yeah, the fans support us and we all love them. We want them back in the stadium as soon as possible so they can cheer us on.

“But fans quickly forget what those two have done for the club.

“The gaffer has won five out of six trophies since he came back.

“Mr Lawwell has won the last nine domestic league titles and guided us to a quadruple Treble.

“The fans are hurting more than any of us. It is up to us players to put that right.

“We are the ones who need to take most of the responsibility. We are the ones out there playing for three points, and we are not putting in the performances.

“The manager and the coaching staff can give you all the instructions possible, but ultimately it is us players who are failing to carry out those instructions perfectly.

“We are the ones who can affect what gets said about them, and we are not giving them what they want.”

Back-to-back draws against Livingston prompted Lennon to admit he could understand why people would say the title race was all over, and with it, Celtic’s dreams of a historic 10-in-a-row.

The Northern Irishman, though, has stressed the need to fight on – and Griffiths goes even further.

“Yes, we’ve got a big points gap to try to claw back, and we have not had the best of seasons,” said the Scotland international.

“But it is still mathematically possible – we can still win the league. It’s going to take an almighty push from everybody involved, and we need to take it one game at a time.

“The fans thought it was a foregone conclusion that we were just going to turn up this season and win the 10. It doesn’t work like that.

“You need to earn the right to win trophies. We earned that right 12 times-in-a-row, but that has not been the case this season.”

Why not is the question the Leith-born forward is as baffled about as any supporter.

“We are still doing the same things. The coaching hasn’t changed, what the gaffer, John Kennedy and Gavin Strachan give us is brilliant,” he said.

“It’s just not been a great season, but we have time to turn it around.

“It is actually a pity we are not playing until Wednesday (at home to Hamilton Accies) because after the disappointment, you want to get back on the pitch as quickly as possible.

“However, as I say, the title is still mathematically possible and, of course, there is the Scottish Cup still to play for.

“We have players at this club who do not know what it’s like to not win a cup final or lose a league.

“I have done it, and I can tell you it is up there with the worst feelings in the world.

“Thankfully, for the last few years I have been on a winning side.

“If we can get back to Hampden in the Scottish Cup, then hopefully I will be on the winning side again.

Only another six to go - they've already gone four without winning.
 
All sound bites to keep the manky hordes onside.

All bluff and bluster, all bullshit and all to make sure the jobless wonders get their wallets and giros out to buy the season books.

Utter guff from an absolute fraud of a player and a racist and sectarian bigot to boot.

Apart from the fact there is almost ZERO evidence of them clawing back any points from their games in hand remaining, never mind the rest of the season, there’s no way they will win this league. It’s a formality now, and the big juicy cherry will be winning it at their midden snd rubbing the glee into that wee runts face. What a day it will be!!
 
What does anyone expect him to say?
I was still of a mind that we could have won the league last season.
I certainly never entertained giving it up when it was still very much possible to win it.

Rangers have won nothing this season until the fat Susan Boyle has been coaxed out of the chapel to sing her doleful dirge inside the Jimmy Savile Dome at the Filth FC wake.

That wee racist, junkie, fat bastard isn’t and won’t ever lay a glove on us again.
 
He can't last longer than 65 minutes but wanted the game against Hamilton to come around quicker.

30 with the internal body of a 70 year old.

We are all laughing at you!!
 
If he truly believes they can still win the league then I'm sure his local bookies will give him very good odds..
 
When he gos mullet transplant the guymust have touch that pea he calls a brain with the needle he looks like a cabbage patch kid but that's insulting cabbage patch kids
 
Griffiths is one of those players who'll end up going down the leagues and being even more of a trainwreck than he already is. Wouldn't be suprised if he turns out for a junior team down the line for a couple of hundred quid a week.
 
Whilst Helicopter Sunday and one or two other league wins shows us anything is possible, the guy is talking out of his arsehole.

Even if they were to play and win all three games in hand before we kicked another ball, that takes it to 14 points with 13 to play. So far we've dropped 6 points out of 25. On that form you'd expect us to drop 3 points at most.

I don't gamble, but does anyone have any odds as to Thumbheid being right???
 
Well, let's be honest whether he believes it or not, he isn't going to come out and say the league is gone. That wont go down well with the manager who has tolerated his unprofessionalism the last couple of years. Gotta keep old tombstone teeth on side. Griffiths isn't (that) stupid.

Yet he was happy to lap it up last season when it was "Still possible" that Rangers could win the title..
 
He is a walking advert for that club and all it stands for. The likes if him and Lennon will forever be associated with the standards that club sets.
