C4mmy31 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) All the best to Leigh Griffiths. Having battled with mental health issues myself for many years, the biggest obsticle is coming to terms with admitting you need help.

That's what I was alluding to when I asked on here a few weeks back if anyone had heard any rumours as that's what I had heard at the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I can’t see Celtic paying or offering £6 million for McKenna. He may or may not be worth that, but Aberdeen will definitely not sell him for any less.6 million? Was that a typo? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 This episode has been a reminder of how depressing, ill-informed and tedious discussions between OF fans are. Not on here, to be fair, but social media is a hovel of dreadful debate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Going by some of the Twitter responses from Der ***'s, tying some coloured wool to a goal post has absolutely destroyed their minds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 This has served as a sickening reminder that people can’t find even the slightest bit of compassion in themselves to support someone who’s having a really fucking tough time of it. All because they, er, play for a team they don’t like. It’s fucking ridiculous.All the best to Leigh Griffiths, as someone said above, he must be going through a fair bit of shit to have to give up football for a while. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best to Leigh Griffiths, as someone said above, he must be going through a fair bit of shit to have to give up football for a while. That's one way to look at it, the other is that we - as football supporters - do little better than bogart in on other peoples' tragedy. You know the kind of people I'm talking about, "I'm a *insert team* supporter here, but really hope that Leigh Griffiths conquers his personal demons". Well, maybe you do pal - but in all honesty, there'll be a lot out there who don't really give a f**k - but like the sound of themselves saying these kind of things. And in any case, there's a need to boil everything down to our tribal rivalries that negates that kind of humanity in the first instance. It's a trend that one can observe more often when someone dies, or is diagnosed with some terrible disease that it "really puts football into perspective" - as was once memorably put on here, a perspective that is immediately lost as soon as your team is denied a throw in. I don't mean to demean the struggles of anyone who's going through a rough patch, but I'd feel a lot better about it if we didn't belong to a body, as football supporters, who feel the divine right to say the most horrific of things to one another on a weekly basis - it would make all the faux compassion seem a bit more vrai. As has been said previously, this story has - perplexingly - proven a jumping off point for finger pointing on the subject of an unsatisfactory level of assumed shame for historic child abuse cases. We had a discussion a few weeks ago where the main point was to try and stop people from going out of their way to abuse injured soldiers. It annoys me that Leigh Griffiths gambling problem will probably now become a sacred cow, and in a few hours time we'll all just go back to being absolute c***s to one another. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were right behind the goals at the other end and had a great view. He gave me a father and son memory I will have forever. I hope he beats his demons and gets back to doing what he does best.

Drew Brees Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 SunSport understands a relieved Ladbrokes November player of the month Christie learned immediate X-rays showed no signs of an ankle fracture which had been one of the original concerns.He suffered a severe kick to his left calf and was in obvious distress as he lay on the ground.Celtic’s medical team also don’t believe there’s any significant knee damage.Christie will be scanned, though, to 100-per-cent determine what the issue is.It could prove to be a ligament or Achilles knock.Christie left Parkhead after the game on crutches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Judge Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Desperate to avoid deportation to the Australian Z League, Scott Brown attempts to compact Ryan Christie's neck vertebrae whilst simultaneously standing on his injured calf. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gannonball Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) Ffs some luck with significant injuries in the last year or so Hayes just starting to get his fitness and form then breaks his leg, I doubt he will make it now. Sign Compper, gets injured straight away. Griffiths been struggling with injuries past year at least. Playing European ties with no striker available. Gordon gets injured then our back up gets injured. Simunovic pretty much plays a couple of games then gets injured for a couple of months. Get Arzani, ruled out for the season on his debut. Kouassi starts to get a game then also out for the season. Same happened to Johnstone last season other than making last few games. Now Christie finally gets a game and out too. Thats just off the top of my head probably more Edited December 14, 2018 by gannonball 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully just a minor injury. Would hate to see him out long term. 1 hour ago, gannonball said: Ffs some luck with significant injuries in the last year or so Hayes just starting to get his fitness and form then breaks his leg, I doubt he will make it now.

Thats just off the top of my head probably more Ajer and Bitton can be added to that list. Although, I'm starting to doubt if there even is a footballer called Marvin Compper. What's that, been seen twice in 18 months? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
