    For his scarf tying skills alone, he deserves a Celtic contract for how ever long he wants.

    Hope we can sort something out that's mutually beneficial contract wise.....love this guy and hope he gets off to a flyer this incoming season.....he's our best striker as far as I'm concerned.

    You honestly reckon he's better than Dembele?

    I dont agree he is our best overall striker but he is our best finisher. Demebele can hold the ball up better, link play, is more physical but for sheer out and out goal scoring Griffiths is lethal and better than Edouard or Dembele. Dembele is a better all round striker (mainly due to his physique) which why he will always be picked ahead of Griffiths for the big games.

    Fantastic if he signs on again.
    The way he is talking now is brilliant as well,many keep suggesting he will want a move away because of the likes of dembele, but alas the guy knows he is home and massively appreciated. He will always be getting game time and be the main striker here, just others will obviously come in and help out,some will be better than he is and move on
    But for me Griffith's as the consistent and reliable striker to get us 20+ a year is brilliant.


    And that's coming from a guy who questioned the signing in the first place.

    Would be delighted if we can get Griffiths signed to a new long term deal. A natural in front of goal would be a tremendous boost if he stays long term on a new deal. Last season was tough for him with so many injuries but I have a feeling a good pre-season and a fully fit Griffiths can have a really big season for us.

    You have to give him huge credit. Despite his goal scoring record he’s playin arguably 3rd fiddle and could easily want away. But he’s saying all the right things in press conferences and I think genuinely wants to be here and be patient for his chance.
    What a guy.

    Finbogasson from Iceland played for that youth team as well, seen them congratulating him when he scored the other week.

    Played against Galbraith at primary school, nobody could get near him.

    We had the better team and has dad reffed the league decider. Added on about ten minutes until Galbraith scored the winner :55:

    Not a * chance file under complete *! He couldn’t bear to be away from kids in wolves and has said in a recent interview he is a total home bird

    Think he might leave.

    Been told he’s not happy at Celtic.
