    Used to defend him.

    However I'm now firmly in the 'even his face annoys me' camp.

    A characterless *. What was he thinking!!

    We cant exactly act surprised, this kind of performance has been happening a little too often. The question should be asked how he has been allowed to play this way for so long?

    Has bailed us out far more than the odd error he makes.
    No keeper is perfect with ball at feet and all make mistakes, he is better than most now having improved that aspect of his game.
    Scotland's #1.
    Wanted by Chelsea only a few months ago.
    Signed on a FREE and has been excellent value on the whole.
    1 of only 3 top class keepers we've had in the last 20 years.

    SCAPEGOAT!

    Yes we should be on the look out for a younger better keeper for the future but that will cost serious wonga and no shortage of luck or skill with scouting.

    Some panic merchants on here today should take a look at themselves... he's not the reason we lose games.

    honestly sick of seeing this guy in goals for us now.

    It’s like he oozes out pools of infected unconfident * into the team from his 18 yard box of never ending depression.

    There is no argument when comes to the surprising way in which he came in and performed when most didn't expect it. But being wanted by Chelsea means * all when that same club signed * Magnus Hedmen

    He's no scapegoat.

    He's part of the defence. A big part of it. Which is the glaring weakness in this side.

    Goalkeeping position is not urgent and least of our problems mate. We require 2-3 new centre backs for genuine depth/quality and as much as a love Lustiq's loyalty to Celtic... a new RB.

    Saved that one against Be’er Sheva - and even then it was kicked straight at him.

    Gordon can't play the way BR wants the game to be played, we give possession away so much through him and his decision making is hopeless at times in all things Goalkeeping. He is good at making reaction saves but that's about it.

    A GK that settles the defence is a big thing and Gordon only adds to the apprehension at the back..

    Two new CBs and a GK are essential in Jan..

    Far too inconsistent. Not good enough.

    Cost us nothing. So in that respect we really did get a good piece of business.
    I believe he was as important as any other player in the unbeaten run. But this season his concentration and decision making is beyond poor. Distribution by feet is also 50/50. Not good enough for what we need to progress. But I will say it is no coincidence that this poor form coincides with no consistent or reliable defence in front of him. Every top keeper depends on that. Also hate to mention it but his personal business couldn't have him in top mental condition either.

    Was that the penalty save away from home that prevented it from being 3-0 and us out of the Champions league?

    Imposter aye? what a joke of a fan you are. :50:

    Michel Vorm is not the answer either - a 34-year-old who has barely played a game in three seasons.

    Yes, he saved it. It didn’t require much skill, was my point.

    Joke of a fan? Because I’m not a fan of Craig * Gordon? He’s an atrocious keeper.

    Today is the first time in ages he's actually guessed the right way at a penalty, even my * up Sunday League keeper makes more of an effort
