    Calling him a nonce is just plain stupid! A nonce is one of them filthy * ya see on them peado hunters videos catching them dirty * and are knowingly going to play about with someone underage theyve been msging online! Not someone who sends an emogi to someone they thought was over 18! A thick * yes for even sending an emogi to someone hovering about just over 18 but definitely not a nonce! Does anyone really think griffins would ruin his career by msging someone underage to go play about with them. Thats the height of stupidity for even thinking that. I do believe theres wiser eating grass than griffs sometimes, but on this one, im not jumping on the bandwagon calling him a peado.

    If he does stay in and around the team, all will be forgotten by those slating him if he bags a few winners against the huns in the up and coming season or scores a title decider clincher. Thats how fickle football fans can be and yous all know it!

    People just like to point the finger and take the moral high ground without looking at the facts. I suppose thats just the sign of the times in this internet age! First class * clown he is but defo not a peado!

    Aye, I said 'a' crime, in the Leigh Griffiths thread, in a discussion about Griffiths, talking specifically about a crime Griffiths may have committed. I didn't make a statement about how the law functions in all cases, because it wasn't a legal discussion. No, I'm not familiar with that area of law.

    So you made a statement about how the law treats intent in a non legal discussion without any insight at all into the matter? At least my not relevant point had some basis in fact.

    No, that's not what I did. But I'm glad you realise your point wasn't relevant now.

    It's exactly what you did. And if my point wasn't relevant it doesn't really say much for your... whatever it was.

    No, because I didn't make a statement with no insight as you suggested.

    You made a statement "the law doesn't care if a crime was intentional or not." Then you said it was to do with the crime Griff was concerned with, and then "No, I'm not familiar with that area of law."
    It really reads like you did.

    ANGE POSTECOGLOU insists he hasn't spent any time thinking about Leigh Griffiths and hasn't spoken to him.

    The Celtic striker has been cleared by police over claims he sent inappropriate messages to two schoolgirls.

    He was sent home from the Hoops' training camp in Wales last week as cops and the club launched separate investigations.


    Griffiths only signed a one-year extension to his contract earlier this month to keep him at Parkhead until next summer.

    But following his side's goalless draw with Bristol City, Postecoglou insisted he hadn't given the striker a second thought.

    He said: “You know how much time I have spent thinking about that? You’ve asked me and I’ve just thought about it


    We’ll let it run its course and once it’s done and we get back up to Scotland then we’ll deal with it then.

    “I’ve not spoken to him."

    Hopefully the only words he does say to him are "on your way".

    I don’t agree with “paying him up”. Sack him for gross misconduct and keep our money. He deserves * all from us.

    What’s he done that would be considered gross misconduct in his new deal? I think we’d be liable for damages if we did that.

    Sack him for “gross misconduct” and we will pay out more through a tribunal for wrongful dismissal!! Not the best idea.

    Depends what is in included in his contract. Employment law is very ambiguous.

    At the very least we should pay him off and get him the * away from our club.
