    Has had the backing of all of us but he's very petty and has been numerous time's..

    Why like a post that's saying you're basically finished here as a new striker is in..

    If he’s not happy... it would (me anyway) indicate that HE feels he is fit/ in form enough to be playing regularly...

    Clearly the management have been and are thinking otherwise.

    Even With Sinclair and Morgan gone ... and a new striker in.... its maybe just sunk in how far down the pecking order he now is.

    Aye, now is the time for unity in the club. Social media dramas, even if there's nothing to them, are an unwelcome distraction.

    If Leigh is unhappy at the club looking at other strikers then it's upto him to prove to Lennon that he's made the wrong decision. For a start he needs to lose a bit of the beef, knuckle down in training and bounce games and get back to the level he was at.

    The club have been very good to Griffiths. Very few would not only protect a player as much as we have but renew their contract during that period.

    We all love the wee man and he's been a cracking player for us over the years but sentimentality won't keep your place in the squad, you need to show you're worth it. The gauntlet has been laid down to him and his future at the club is still in his hands to grasp. Lennon isn't a guy to bear grudges, if he was looking sharp and banging them in, in training then he would've been in ahead of Morgan.

    The snake used to call him out. Lenny is one of the few who has always supported him from the get go..

    Came back and was as understanding...due to his own mindset with what he's had to deal with and yet he's still slapping him in the face..

    In my opinion, if he wasn't already done here...he is now..

    His patter on twitters getting boring now.

    Comes a time when you need to do your talking on the park.

    He needs to be shown the door. Acts like a child.

    Think it is time for him to move on.
    Bit of a rollercoaster few years for him here but more ups than downs.

    I love Leigh but it's nearly half a decade since he had that 40 goal season. His style doesn't really suit our style of play and he has had next to no game time in two years. Probably best for everyone if he goes on loan. I'm not writing him off and still think he could score goals for us but I don't see him getting the game time.

    Reeks of immaturity and being unprofessional tbh.

    I appreciate everything he has supposedly went through but he surely must realise that he hasn't a divine right to walk back into the picture after being out so long. At this stage he's letting the squad down by continually being unavailable for various reasons and its having a detrimental effect on one of our biggest seasons in recent history.

    I want him to come good again as he is so dangerous on form but instead of posting pish on instagram and twitter show it to us. Not going to make him popular in the squad doing pish like that.

    Twitter is * * bullshit.

    Lennon should ban the players from discussing club affairs on it as it never helps matters.

    I'd be happy for Griff to stay if he's contributing but if he's unable to play half the time then what's the point? In fairness I think he deserves a bit more than getting flung on with 10mins to go and expected to change the game but that's up to management.

    We all want tae see Griff fit and healthy, doing his talkin on the park.

    The problem is that the season is passing him by, this is a time where we need all hands on deck.

    Love the guy myself but he's being very childish. At such times when another striker is signed you've two options

    1. Step up to the plate and show you're number one

    Or

    2. Play the victim and act a complete walloper.

    He's chosen 2 seemingly.

    That last bit is spot on..

    It's disrespectful as * to the new boy coming in for starters alone..
