    And I'll judge him how he played against us aswell they points better than the guy who would rather am inform gordon to Forster a guy who's actually proved himself against he worlds best and an England international

    A low risk signing, don't think he'll be on much.

    Needless to say if he gets back to his Hearts/Scotland form then we've got one * of a keeper on our books.

    Boruc's kicking wasn't the best and christ knows he had a blunder or two in him, I mean Begovic scored into him last season. Is he pish as well now?

    By all means, you are allowed you opinion bud, but you'll find you are the only one who will be so certain and adamant with that one.

    Gordon , is up there with Marshall, MacGregor and Boruc!! All including McShagger are * hot keepers! If you choose to ommit the word hot when you read this then that is your perogative!:50:

    I'd have been annoyed if we didn't take this gamble on.

    Craig Gordon is my all time fav Scotland Keeper. If he stays fit and is given the same time to settle in as Forster, he'll be a right good free transfer.

    Is this Forster or Gordon you're referring to?

    think the money would have been better spent on a young goal keeper if he is signed as a back up ,dont really care as zaluska is pish.however If forster is now sold and gordon is to be our first choice keeper i wont be pleased at all

    If he is looking good (I trust Steve Woods opinion) it'll be a very good deal! If he doesn't return to form its a very low risk. If Forster leaves we have good back up until we replace him, or Gordon might even step up we never, anyway welcome to Celtic :celt_2: I'm willing to give him a chance

    I have no problem with this signing, if he has been signed as a No#2. He's free and I doubt he will be on high wages.

    I'll be raging though if he has been signed as a replacement for Forster.

    Not too worried about injuries tbh, he would have gotten a lot more work and chance for injury at clubs like Hearts and Sunderland. What I worry about is his ability to play on a team that might not leak as many shots on goal, and for his ability to stay in the game.

    Well Forster didn't go for 9 mill so obviously Forster

    Wow you put up 10 decent saves I could put up 10 of his blunders!

    Boruc was a world class keeper on his game who had problems did Craig Gordon ever have that at hearts ?

    I have reservations about his previous injury problems and the fact that he hasn't played competitively for two years, but welcome to the club nonetheless.

    Good backup for Fraser if he can stay fit :celt_2:

    I don't see why you're raging so much, Cmcgregor. We got him for free, he's probably not on that high wages and Forster is still here. Give him a chance.

    Saw him being quickly interviewed there on SSN saying that he was here to challenge for the number 1 jersey. Hopefully that remains the case.
