I've said it before but how can Ronnie seriously think we are stronger this year after the transfer window. Last season we probably needed a skilful centre mid a decent forward and left back, and probably a defensive midfielder. This season we still need the same plus a new central defensive partnership. If griffiths gets banned for his refs comments where are the goals going to be scored from? I have to say the league form is bad just very worried what the teams in the Europa group could do to us when we are in bad form

@quinn1888. How stupid is Griffiths. He knows that we are short handed up front and that he is going to have to fight Cifti for the lone striker roll and he comes out with that statement. I will be amazed if he is not banned. So much for him maturing and settling down!

Robbie Neilson,John Hughes ,only two weeks ago openly on television slaughtered two referees for their performances ,and very little is made in the press regarding their comments.Leigh Griffiths voices his opinion and they want him dealt with by the authorities,typical anti Celtic country.killy.

Killy mate stop with the paranoia, there were several open debates I read in articles online, watched on sportscene and STV news and such like questioning Neilson and John Hughes comments on refs, particularly Neilsons comments on Willie Collum suggesting he felt he had an agenda against Hearts and knew Collum would send one of his players off which was why they had practiced with ten men before the game. People debating whether his comments were too far or not on Collum. As someone who was taught by Willie Collum at R.E in High School I can confirm he has no agenda or affiliation with ANY football team. His only passion if for refereeing and whilst he may not be very good at that(Although I thought he had a great game in the Super Cup)I can tell people he has no agenda after having several chats with him on the subject at school as to who he supported. There were actual rumours of Partick Thistle believe it or not but I didn't believe that, he just wants to get to the highest level refereeing, think his next aim is getting to a Euro finals or World Cup finals.

Anyway, going off subject with that ramble, point is Griffiths has been silly here and should have known better, his comments basically suggested has an agenda against Celtic which you can't do as a player and will probably cop a two game ban or something.

There are a thousand clichés he could of rhymed off "some decisions don't go your way, I can't say too much on the matter without repercussions" etc. Players/managers should really of got the hang of this by now but fall into these traps giving the press columns to fill. Stupid thing to say were you know honest negative opinions are punished. Sterile suggestions are all that's allowed.
