THE furious uncle of Hibs striker Leigh Griffiths launched a blistering attack on the star last night in a row over a £500 loan.

Typical bull**** journalism from the sun from top to bottom. Didn't even get his name right.

Nothing to see here.

O dear.... Just what we need.... Good to see the sun pay attention tho, the burn down tynecaste was from a fake account. Sure mcpake and a few other players tweeted this

That said... How the hell can a footballer be strapped for cash ? What is he on around 2/3k a week ?

[DevonLoch]

The Scottish Hun breaks bad news story on Hibs striker. Nothing new or newsworthy there. Just another poorly written article with little or no substance blown out of all proportion. Journalism of the lowest order in keeping with their proven track record of printing lies or grossly exaggerated tales to sell papers. Boycott this rag.

Scrapping the bottom if the preverbial barrel. Why o why would the uncle do this.... O wait a minute for dosh.

Hope LG just ignores this.

****bag journalism

[phantomscotsman]

I know his uncle and can't believe he has been duped by the sun... Total rag of a paper... certainly will not be making an attempt to speak to him from now on....

[Hainan Hibs]

Wouldn't wipe my backside with that paper. That article was cringeworthy from start to finish.

[lyonhibs]

Whilst the Sun isn't even toilet paper, if the basic point of the story is true, and Sparky does still owe his Uncle the dosh and is being a prat about paying it back, then he needs to give himself a shake, pay it back and employ a Financial advisor pronto. Top league footballers with 2 brain cells to rub together should not be getting into a financial pickle with their weekly wages.

Especially when earning more in a week than many do in a month.

[Heedersnvolleys]

This strikes me as "Hibs boss in papers again moaning about how the media is against us". The Sun then gets a non-story as if to say "you bring it on yourself" or "we give you something else to moan about".

[ScottB]

Why anyone ever picks up the likes of the Sun or the Record, or even goes on to their websites is beyond me!

[EdinMike]

Clicked on it. Saw it was The Sun. Closed it.

Don't believe the hype kids !

Because they love controversy and they can then go on to Hibs net to vent their spleen.

[givescotlandfreedom]

Collins had the right idea when banning the papers that stirred it up about us.

[CB_NO3]

Thats what we get for drawing with one of the Old Firm :)

[EH6 Hibby]

I'm in total disbelief that this is even considered newsworthy, I'm blown away that this is front page news. Pathetic.

[Beefster]

If this was a Hearts player, we'd be lapping it up.

Yeah we would be but forgotten in 5 minutes tho. Front page news wot a lot of crap.

[DarrenSQH]

Imagine the fake headlines if we had won.

So he has punched fenlon, burnt down a stand and owes £500.

[SlickShoes]

A mate owes me money and he is late on the payment, I expect to see the story in the sun tomorrow morning.

[hibsbollah]

Is that supposed to be newsworthy?

[Viva_Palmeiras]

The good news is uncle got paid for said article so has likely recouped the amount due and some.

Best way to deny oxygen to the Sun is not only to buy but not to click through (parr of revenue generating model) or post on here regarding it.

exaxctos, i like to keep an open mind on these articles, always nice to hear from both sides can you imagine some posters on here on court duty for a murder trial, guilty m'lord, judge says, have you heard both sides evidence yet ? naw...i just hink he's guilty

if that's directed at me can you elaborate please ? vent my spleen ? about what exactly ? just in case you haven't noticed, it's the 21st century and freedom of speech etc etc, as far as i know you aint the .net censorship officer on here, if you don't like seeing newspaper articles showing any of our players in a bad light(whether rightly...or wrongly...you decide) then don't read the link, it's really quite simple, freedom of choice etc etc

[Hermit Crab]

Move along people nothing to see here except the usual pish from the sun trying to start a hate campaign against our player. If that was an OF player not a word would be said.

not for me to say, but if i knew his uncle i would be asking him personaly for his side of the story, and if he has been paid back, why would he even be contemplating taking legal advice ? if i had been paid back money from my nephew i certainly wouldn't make a fool of myself by deliberately lying to a newspaper, theirs actually usually 3 sides to a story....his version....and his version...and somewhere in the middle is the truth :)

If it was a Hearts player, it wouldn't be in the Scottish Sun because there is a Yam journo there who controls these kind of stories.

Disabled Norman said: “Near the end of April I got a phone call from my daughter Vivien. She said she though Lee was in a “bit of bother” as he had asked her to lend him £300.

well he missed this bit about his beloved hertz then


Templeton’s agent David Baldwin also hit out at Jambos last night.
He added: “I think if it was any club other than Hearts and they made those comments about you it would be upsetting but because it’s Hearts it is just laughable now.
“It’s their usual ‘nonsensical rant at a departing player’ and they don’t like factual information getting in the way of a good rant.

Think there is only one uncle
