    Time to look for a new keeper.

    I've been backing him the last few months but the last couple of games has me worried.

    His kicking has been ropey as * for quite some time and it's incredible that it's actually taken so long for him to cost us a goal.

    Don't like him. Need an improvement. Probably the worst keeper I've ever seen at this level for letting shots in at the near post.

    That "kick" is probably one of the most lazy, lethargic, unprofessional things I've ever seen from a goalkeeper.

    Disgraceful. If we had a proper CB playing when the goalie did that, I'd have expected him to have went * mental at him, not just dither about....eyes glued to the floor.

    * embarrassing.

    Mistakes in him every single game. Capable of making a wonder save and then a blunder within 5 minutes of one another.

    Better needed.

    I hate how he tries to be modern and fancy. All this playing from the back looks dodgy as * when it comes off and if it doesn't it's costing us. He literally tried to do a pass with the outside of his foot....stop trying to be someone you're not, Craig.

    Should have been sold after the inter game, he's too old for mistakes like that and he has too many in him

    That goal was a * * take. I don't care how much better we are than teams or how much we win the league by, that's just not acceptable.

    Not over dramatic. He should be dropped on the spot..

    That was a complete and utter * take and smacked of someone who thinks they're the bollocks..

    Wee half arsed outside of the boot kick when we were under pressure in the box. Joke..

    He's been living dangerously with a lot of his distribution recently, today his luck ran out.

    That wasn't even so much as a bad mistake, was downright taking the *. One of the most unprofessional things I've seen from a Celtic player on the football pitch.

    I wouldn't call for him to be dropped, however that has to be a huge wake up call for him, and anything similar should see him dropped.

    The way Brendan wants us to play, I can understand him having the odd poor pass out, but not that.

    Aye, never been a big fan of his.
    Good shot stopper, he certainly has saved our * on a few occasions, but also has let us down a lot. Over the years now he has been at fault for quite a few goals, specially in Europe. And he will be again this year.

    He done really well last year to adapt his game, massive credit there.
    Domestically he is capable, cockyness today aside. But he is never the answer going forward and to take us in to Europe.

    The money we have at our disposal, we should be going out and finding a quality keeper of a good age. The next courtois, De gea etc. OK we aren't ever getting the Spanish version - naturally the big clubs will have lots of tabs on them, but we need to go out and snap up the next Oblak.
    White a few within the French league should be looked at.
    We have a brilliant coach in stevie Woods, time to use him surely in developing a younger keeper. And if he can't, hire someone who can.

    We can't go on with Gordon in goals long term, and as each year passes this will become more of an issue, so best get it sorted now.

    Unprofessional approach from him which is surprising.

    His shot stopping isn't in question for me but I wouldn't be against a new GK.

    Should have been after Benoit Costil.

    His distribution is questionable at times. Shocking mistake today.
