“He is a young man. He has had a few off the field issues, as we all do. Sometimes they get blown out of proportion.

“So I will manage him as best I can and he has to concentrate on his football and if he does I am sure he will be a very good acquisition for the club.

“I have always liked his attitude on the field and having spoken to a lot of people who have played with him and worked with him, managers, they have spoken very highly of him.

“He is an engaging personality, he is quite quiet. Like most people who come with reputations he is not what you would expect.

“He seems quite a focused kid, he knows what he wants and he is delighted to be here. So we are very pleased.

“We think he is value for money. He’s a prolific scorer, knows the environment here and I think we can make him better.”

“I´m over the moon,” he said. “It´s been a long time coming. Ever since I heard Celtic were interested there was only one place I wanted to play and I´m just glad it´s done now.
 
“It was the middle of December and my agent gave me a phone and said Celtic could be interested in January and I have just been counting down the days.
 
“Unfortunately, it´s taken to the last day but I´m just glad that it´s been done now and I can´t wait to get started.
 
“We are the Scottish champions to begin with, and this is a massive club with a massive fanbase and a massive stadium. I have watched the Champions League nights on the TV and there is no better place to play. This is where I want to be.
 
“I was just really keen. I know what it takes to become a Celtic player. I had a great season last year at Hibs and then I have went down back the road and started scoring goals as well.”
 
Griffiths struck 28 times for the Easter Road side during the previous campaign in which he underlined his qualities as a natural-born finisher, scoring every type of goal. Nothing gives him greater satisfaction.
 
“I want to bring goals – that´s what I am all about and what I love doing,” he said. “I did it last season for Hibs and have done it for Wolves and now it´s my time to shine in the Hoops and hopefully I can do it.
 
“I am just thankful to get my chance here and hopefully I can prove that I am a good signing and start scoring goals for fun.
 
“My message to the fans is that I´m looking forward to playing and scoring goals and winning things here.”

Margaret Thatcher Considered The Repartition Of Ireland

Dr Paul Compton a Queen’s University Academic suggested a Repartition of Ireland back in the 1980’s according to documents recently released under the 30 year rule. These ideas reached the desk of Margaret Thatcher. Redrawing the border was rejected by the British Prime Minister.

He suggested three options for repartition, including one ceding over half of the Six Counties to the Republic Of Ireland, reducing its population to one million – 73.5% of it Protestant.

The NIO paper, discussing Dr Compton’s suggestions, also referred to a possible partition of Belfast.Government officials discussed creating “a wedge-shaped area in west Belfast” running from Twinbrook to the Divis Flats. The briefing paper discusses “difficulties over the Belfast sector”, adding that one solution, “a walled ghetto”, “would entail physical as well as political difficulties”.

This is not the first time repartition has been considered in British Government circles. That Margaret Thatcher who died last year and was praised by Unionists as some sort of hero even thought such a idea possible should be food for thought.
