He was originally going to get 18 until somebody in the commercial department came up with 83 and the boss ok'd it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, he's been injured for a significant portion of the chapter of his playing history you cared to "reference". At Wednesday he played, his strike rate was hardly magnificent. He's over rated , magnificently over rated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was well documented at the time he struggled to settle. He is now the best striker in the country by some way. If May can get anywhere near half this form he'll be doing well but he won't as he is now the definition of a dud, an injury prone one.

A league 1/lower championship side did not want him. No matter how you try to spin it. I like Griffiths, I was championing him on here when he played with Livi and I doubt you even knew who he was. However, he's clearly developed further since joining Celtic. My point is that you're dismissing a players who's career trajectory is been quite similar to Griffiths and ignoring the fact that he also has the opportunity to improve. But your typical blinkered arrogance is refusing to allow you to be rational or objective. In summary: yer havering shite, ya walloper.

May is 1 in every 2.25 games - Griffiths is 1 in every 1.85 games , although Griffiths has played double the games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not comparing like with like. I know - although May had a lot of goals at Hamilton & Alloa Unless you start factoring Griffiths goals such as Ballon Do "or with 0.75 etc , I think you can only go for bare stats My point was Macy was suggesting May was 1 in 3, while his 2.25 is not so far away from Griffiths 1 in 1.85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
