    Why exactly was he brought in again? Was Gordon injured and we were saddled with just De Vries?

    That’s right. Made total sense at the time. But the fact he’s seen out 3 and half years at the club is insane.

    2023 I think, so he is here for a while. Our recruitment of keepers is pretty guff, De Vries, Bain and Barkas.

    your so intent on being a smart @rse you don't get the point.
    Woods would without any doubt have been responsible or if not jointly responsible for the choice of keepers at the club.
    In his opinion they were either good enough or showed enough to be seen to be made good enough.
    Woods is no doubt competent at putting a keeper through a training session , what is perfectly evident is, he can't improve a keeper which has been proven this season.
    So Who do you think is responsible for having 3 keepers at the club non of whom can hold the no 1 jersey.

    I get the point, it’s just that the point is stupid as *.

    You have no idea what involvement Stevie Woods had in hiring our goalkeepers. Do you not realise how ridiculous you sound making that assertion so confidently? Not only are you telling us how involved he was, you’re also telling us what opinion he gave. Absolutely ridiculous.

    How do you know Woods didn’t warn them not to sign Barkas and push solely for Forster? Like everyone else, you’ve not got a clue.

    Besides..

    Hazard is a third choice development keeper. Bain was always brought in as a cheap number 2. It’s embarrassing you’re expecting a goalkeeping coach to turn them into Celtic first team quality. If anything, the level he’s got from Bain is good considering how bad Bain is.

    Barkas clearly doesn’t have what it takes to succeed here. It’s a bad signing and that’s it.

    Woods has a track record of success. Forster was * youth goalie when he first got here and Woods developed him to a £10m England no. 1.

    Gordon hadn’t kicked a ball in anger in 2 years and Woods got him to a great standard again.

    Forster was a benchwarmer and Woods got him playing exceptionally again in his second spell.

    He’s now also the Scotland GK Coach and I don’t know if you noticed but Scotland have done pretty well in that department recently, or maybe you missed the penalty shootout.

    Bottom line here is to start taking digs at Stevie Woods is laughable. It’s so random and bizarre I can only assume you know him personally and don’t like him.

    There's an old saying "you can't educate Pork " but I'll give it a go
    firstly Forster was a huge prospect in his Newcastle playing days , secondly It was Jin Stewart at Rangers that got Gordon back up to speed as he was training with the huns prior to joining us.
    Bain was supposedly a top keeper who fell out of favour at Dundee due to a bust up with MC Cann , Woods was given the task of getting the best out of him .
    Scotland are still using and considering goalkeepers who at the end of there careers , Gordon , Marshall ,MC laughlin .If it was based on talent MC Gregor would be first choice at 37 .
    Do you honestly think any manager would be do disrespectful as not to take the advise of a Specialist goalkeeper coach when recruiting if that's the case you haven't a clue buddie.
    I don't doubt pushed for Forster but we just simply couldn't afford him .
    As far as an agenda against Woods ,it's not the case but I do think he should escape unscathed regarding the shower at the club at the moment
    Any Wiser?
    in case you're still struggling here's a snippet from the Scottish sun at the time

    BIG INTERVIEW
    Celtic signed Craig Gordon from under Rangers’ nose after secret scouting mission reveals Hoops keeper coach Stevie Woods


    The double-treble winner had trained with Rangers for 12 months before he signed with champions Celtic

    Okay - fair enough, Stevie Woods has zero impact on Gordon, apparently we’re not allowed to give Woods any credit at all, since we have a bizarre hate for the Celtic goalkeeping coach.


    Forster was raw as * when he first came to Celtic and left an England no. 1. You can deny that all you like but it’s a fact.

    “Bain was supposedly a top keeper..”
    - I’ve given you enough rope and you’ve hung yourself :50:

    It’s sad to me you’re so convinced about a made up conversation between Lennon and Woods. Take a step back and think about what you’re arguing there.

    By the way, you’ve got about 50 posts and 99% have been in the Bain thread or the Barkas thread. There’s undeniably some connection there which explains the weird agenda you’ve got.

    You’ve been found out so just stop talking * please.

    oooooh a bit sensitive aren't we.
    ok you're right and I'm wrong it's a pure coincidence that we have 3 keepers that are incapable of justifying an obvious 1st choice selection .
    Woods was never consulted over which Goalkeepers comes to the club, the manager just simply signs a keeper and he turns up Monday morning and Woods said oh who are you and where are you from.
    Does that satisfy you
    oh and another useful extract
    this is Bain talking
    Then, on a Friday, we have what Woodsy likes to call a ‘Tidy Friday’ we’re he’ll make sure we’re sharp and flying so that when the game comes we’re feeling great.”
    Maybe you're a child you can't tell on a forum or maybe Vain or a relative or friend ,for which I apologise .
    If you're an educated *, look into the background of what you are commenting on its all thre on the internet

    Wild post, calm yourself down because I can barely make any sense of that to be honest.

    I’m not the one that joined 5 months ago and only posts on goalkeeper threads. I just see someone spewing raw * with an agenda so I called it what it is: raw *.

    Your post history doesn’t lie, you clearly have some personal issue here. Like I said, you’ve been found out, so just move on, it’s not a good place to be.

    how do you mean found me out , 8f you want to know where and what I've posted just ask , no need to employ a private investigator.
    I just have a gripe with the fact Bain has had a 5 yr contract is hopeless and Woods can do nothing about it nor can he improve any of the keepers ,no big deal just a fact and frustrating.
    but 8f you are happy 8n your little world 9f what we have so he it .
    you can't seem to understand facts of appreciate information , just continue sticking your fingers in your ears and say lalalalala and see where 8g gets you

    Facts? Mate get a grip, you’re peddling a fictional conversation between Lennon and Woods to sign Barkas and calling it ‘facts’ :56:

    You’ve joined a forum 5 months ago to only moan about the Celtic goalkeepers and the coach. There’s a fact for you.

    So Stevie Woods scouted a guy who had been a Scottish international goalkeeper for almost a decade and had played for years in the premier league and deemed him good enough......an extremely good coach then.....
