I don't think that Griffiths' antics can be interpreted in any other way than to incite a response from the opposition fans. A bit like Gascoigne's flute playing escapade. Some might see that as harmless banter others will see it as dangerous provocation. The authorities have to deal with it or it could result in unfortunate consequences. I heard a bit of a report saying that Rodgers had leapt to his defence but I'm not sure if it was for something he did during the match or for his post match behaviour. I must add that the home support behaviour was worse and deserves action from the authorities.

Seen a pic from the game where he gives a 5-1 sign to the Linfield fans as he lines up to take a corner. Possibly just before the half bottle of Buckie got launched? Nowt to do with scarves, but just sayin.........

Griffiths tying scarf to post
This whole thread is embarrassing. He can tie a scarf to the post if he wants. Highly doubt we'd be criticising a Hibs player if they tied a scarf to the post at Tynecastle

Hate crime
No wonder society is on its arse with all these politically correct bammers that are offended by everything.''It's always been just part of the culture. Growing up, for most working-class kids, is all about football, music or clothes. You might not have much money, but whatever you have got, you're going to look good.'' - Paul Weller

I couldn't care less what any Celtic player does but if you think that anyone would end up charged with a hate crime for tying a scarf round a goalpost then I would suggest you read up on what a hate crime actually is.

I hope the stupid Linfield louts who chucked bottles at him were incensed by his actions.
Typical cowardly snowflakes - happy to try and injure the guy by throwing stuff from the safety of the crowd but then all upset by a scarf.

No problem with it. Football fans want to dish it out but can't take it back.

I couldn't care less what LG gets up to in his guise as a Sellik player ...... but provocation or not its a bit daft for anybody to fan the flames of what is already an incendiary situation. Having said that, given their behaviour the Linfield fans are no doubt assured of a warm welcome in Glasgow and no doubt the hundreds of their fellow local knuckle draggers who will be desperate to join them on the night as well .... it should be a laugh a minute .....not.

It was a stupid thing to do, but hardly worth the furore.
On the other hand anything that sees celtc and their players in bother is fine by me so i hope UEFA absolutely hammer him and them.
There really was no need for it.

Remarkable that this is the only fallout from that game given the BS surrounding it but would have thought Brendan Rogers would have demanded that his players wouldn't react to any provocation or for that matter encourage anything. Interesting in the context of Bonucci's move to Milan after alleged dressing room clashes.
Strange parallels with LG and them with the hand gesture. Hardly a crime though.
Isn't that scarf stuff a bit Sounessesque?

I completely agree with your statements.
Ive been at games against this team in N Ireland and seen for myself just how bad these supporters behave. Its like going into a cauldron of hate if you do not have red white and blue in your colours.
when i didnt stand for the National Anthem before a game i was glared at from all directions! Its just a mini Ibrox as far as i am concerned.
Griffithis is not the brightest tool though is he? The hostile atmosphere should have been enough and the history of this part of Ireland is something he must be aware of. The missiles being thrown at him were a disgrace and his booking was farcical. Why would he be wasting time when there was still 30mins to go in the game and they were 2-0 up? the referee needs to have a look at himself there!
Even after this he manages to get dressed and come out again before the crowd have cleared and tie a Celtic scarf to the post, indicating Celtic owned the stadium? Not a very smart thing to do was it? they have a return game at Parkhead to come and 1500 tickets have been sold.......
The Glasgow police will not be taking any sort of crap from anyone that night and wont be pleased either that Griffiths has just stoked the flames!!
Im all against religion and politics being involved in all sport let alone football but this just shows Griffiths immaturity in these matters and IMHO was such a stupid thing to do. No doubt in some people's minds he will be a "hero" and the story goes on and on!!
