    LEIGH GRIFFITHS has grown used to having abuse hurled at him inside Scottish grounds.

    So the sound of silence will be more than welcome for the Celtic striker when football finally returns.


    Griff joked having no rival fans at closed-doors games will be a personal bonus.

    In reality, though, he would much rather be running out for Celtic at packed stadiums around Scotland.



    Yet Griffiths hailed the SPFL and clubs for finding a temporary solution to get our game back up and running.

    With an August 1 restart date pencilled in, clubs got the green light to sell virtual season tickets.

    Griffiths has been watching German matches on TV and urged Scottish football to make the best of a bad situation.

    He said: “It will be strange going to some stadiums, like Ibrox or Tannadice or wherever, and I won’t be getting any stick.


    “It’ll feel weird and I’ll be feeling quite good!

    “If you see practice matches at training, it’s usually 11 vs 11 with coaches at the side of the pitch. So it’s not going to be totally unusual.

    “Of course it will be different without fans. But for us it is just going to be about going out and playing the games.

    “I think everyone is just looking forward to getting matches back on to the TV.


    Whether it is behind closed doors or with fans there, the English Premier League are trying to get it done.

    “I have been watching the Bundesliga, too. There have been some good games.”

    Griff knows it’ll be months before Celtic fans are allowed back inside Parkhead — but hopes it’ll be worth the wait.

    Neil Lennon’s men are chasing history next season and the striker hopes the Hoops supporters can be there in their thousands to witness it.

    He added: “The quicker the fans get back to enjoy their football, the better.

    “The game is all about the fans and, regardless of whether it is a home game or an away game, you want people there.




    “When we have away games, there are often more Celtic fans there than there are for the home team.

    “We want them back, but we also need to comply with the Government.

    “We know our fans will be behind us, even if they are not inside the stadium and are watching on the TV.

    “We’ll find our ways to deal with whatever happens.

    “We’ll go back next week into training and we’ll have a meeting about how big next season is.

    “We know it is going to be tough and teams will want to stop us, especially Rangers.

    “But it is just about what we do and we’ll concentrate on our own game.

    “We’ll look forward to it. Hopefully at the end of the season we will be history-makers again.”




    Griffiths was hitting top form when the Premiership was halted in March.

    He had formed a deadly partnership with Odsonne Edouard and hopes to pick up where they left off.

    The French striker will be a target for top Euro clubs this summer — but Griff hopes he stays for the shot at history.

    He said: “I want him to be here, 100 per cent.



    I see rumours all of the time that he is being linked with massive clubs.

    “But don’t forget we are a massive club as well, so we want him to stay.

    “If he stays one more season and plays as well as he has done over the last 18 months, he’d be a big, big asset to us reaching the ten in a row.”

    Lennon plans to tweak his squad this summer, with no major overhaul expected.

    If Edouard does stay put, he will enter the new campaign knowing he has Scotland’s best strike partnership.

    Griff hopes that gives Celtic a head start on their rivals.


    He said: “It’s up to the manager to decide what games we would play and what formations he will use.

    “But I think he knows that there is an understanding there and it’s not as if it is something that is going to be chucked together.

    “We know how we are going to play together.

    “It’s an interesting one and I’m sure the fans are desperate to watch it in the stands or watch on the TV when we come back to see how we can continue the partnership.



    Odsonne likes to come short and I like to go long, so we complement each other.

    “It was a bit stop-start for me in the first half of last season, but after January we were on fire.

    “It would have been interesting to see how the gaffer would have gone at Ibrox in the game that was due before the shutdown. If he’d have
    played one up or two up?

    “We’ll never know, but we will see when the games come around again what the gaffer is thinking.”
