Many Celtic supporters have been talking about the latest tweet from Paul John Dykes that recently emerged on social media.
Pundit Dykes recently posted a tweet about Leigh Griffiths, saying that like Anthony Ralston, even the Celtic striker should be given another year at Parkhead. He described Griffiths to be a ‘goalscoring machine’ and counted down some of the striker’s goalscoring numbers at Parkhead.
Would you like Griffiths to be handed a new contract?
Yes
No
While Ralston is set to be handed a new one-year deal by Celtic, Griffiths is yet to sign an extension at the club and his brother has already said that the Scotsman is a free agent right now.
Dykes’ tweet about Griffiths drew the attention of many Celtic fans, who made their views clear about the striker.
What did Celtic fans make of the tweet about Griffiths?
“I’m all for redemption but he had his chance and blew it. I’m starting to think our budget for the rebuild is not that impressive. HH.”

“Jeez thats an absolute stretch, if there’s a player that doesn’t deserve a contract it’s LG his lack of professionalism should gurantee that it doesn’t happen.”

“He has blown it for the last two years! It’s time for him to move on. He can’t be relied on”
Griffiths’ game time at Celtic has reduced over the last couple of campaigns and not just that, he’s also faced injury issues quite regularly during that period.
The Scotsman is now 30 and isn’t getting any younger with every passing day and if his fitness continues to be questionable, Celtic shouldn’t look to keep him around for too long and replace him soon.
