The Real Leigh Griffiths

[Imand]

How about this for showing what a gent Leigh Griffiths really is.
My daughter, a complete stranger to Leigh, tweeted Leigh to say that my grandson Alistair was in tears when she told him Leigh was leaving Hibs, Lee tweeted back that he was sorry to hear that and that he would send a wee memento for Alistair.
A couple of weeks passed nothing, another and then a parcel appeared addressed to Alistair he opens the parcel to find a pair of boots signed by Leigh. A real good guy I wish him all the best for the future wherever that may be.

You should probably do him the service of spelling his name correctly after such a noble gesture. 😉

He does seem a thoroughly decent guy when you get passed the silly stuff. Nice story!

I was thinking this would be about that quality blogg from his Dundee days...

....absolute pant-wetting stuff - required reading for any fan of Leigh :agree:

You had me going - thought there might have been an update in the offing. Ach well - great story anyway - underneath that daft as a broomcupboard full of brushes exterior lurks a heart of gold it seems - well done Leigh - hurry back! :thumbsup:

[Imand]

Oops Fixed that's what happens when you don't take you time. How can I change the name of the thread? Where's the Red Face Smiley?

[Pretty Boy]

He's a bit daft but a good guy imo.

Typical football bad boy behavior this.

"As Jocky went to retrieve his jetpack from the dugout his pet told me about some woman he met in Deja Vu and had ****ged in the Wellgate car park, which said as much about the Vu’s clientele as the sexual prowess of the cat. "

Absolute gold :faf:

He must be private. You will need to click on follow and wait to see if he lets you follow him

[Alex Trager]

Is the blog actually his? From what I've heard of him it seems rather articulate for our young man who loves the Hibs

[Sir David Gray]

Missing him already. :boo hoo:

[Wotherspiniesta]

Boots? Pish gift.

If he truly felt for the wee lad, he should have hacked around his ankle and given him his gifted left foot.

Typical Sparky. Never thinking of the kids.

[Baader]

Good story. Haste ye back where you belong LG!

[AndyM_1875]

The Blog is written by DundeeBarry off the Pie and Bovril forum. A very funny guy who gave us the Jocky Scott approved word "Teckle".:thumbsup:

For that we should be grateful.
:not worth
