ED007 has your opinion changed on Gordon? I know you were very critical of Celtic signing him but you must give him credit for working hard to get himself fit.
I know it is only a handful of games but he has looked the part and even tonight pulled off some great saves, for a free transfer player replacing a £10m keeper he looks like fabulous business by Celtic.

{Ed007's Note - No my opinion hasn't changed, why would it have, his decision making is very poor. He parries the ball too much and it's usually into dangerous areas (is it his weakened arms?), he went to ground far too early for the first goal tonight and if he hadn't been caught in no-man's land against Maribor at CP we would be in the CL. Watch that goal back again, as the ball is breaking away from the goal he should have repositioned himself on his line, if he had done that he would have stopped the ball.}

Fair enough on not changing your opinion but you are being a tad harsh on him mate he certainly isn't made of "glass" he be back in a Scotland set-up in no time IMO

How are you feeling noo Tim?

{Ed007's Note - Maybe if his wrists/arms were at full strength he could punch the ball out better.}

I thought Gordon played very well tonight. Made great saves, controlled his box better than forster and was unlucky with a deflection and a great free kick. LB n RB are a priority.

First goal caused by poor central defending, pass split them wide open.
Same with Maribor away.
I had same doubts over Gordon but in all games I've seen him this year then think he deserves credit.
You would think that Forster was some sort of peerless keeper, that boy has many flaws which resulted in only Southampton, the "big" EPL club come in for him.
As for blaming him for cl exit is poor

I think if Gordon had been playing at Murrayfield, we might still be in the CL.

Oh Dear ED are you havin a bad day! Scotland says NO and Gordon proves already he is as good as or even better so early in his Celtic career than Forster. Rest assured ED as Ronny says "he is going to get better". You slag Gordon off about Maribor home game but I remember Forster when the Sheep Killers came to Celtic Park. The 2nd half at 2-2 Forster was in "No Mans Land" twice when Matthews had to clear off the line and from a Shy which bounced on Forsters 6 yard line and hit the bar. In Gordon WE Trust. Hail Hail

@Jamiebhoy thanks for asking about my health, getting there slowly, Mrs T keeping me on a tight rein lol
ED007 I still think you are being too hard on Gordon as others say Forster had faults also, and I can see bigger clubs coming for Gordon if he keeps up good performances and we do not have him on a longer contract.

Ed, If All our players were as poor as Craig Gordon we would have nothing to worry about! He may have been slightly out if position on the Maribor goal but overall his contribution do far this season has been more than acceptable, in fact he has been one of our better players if not our best player so far. I liked Fraser but he was overhyped. Gordon will do me and I hope we get him signed to a longer term contract as long as the knee holds up.

That's good Tim, wee steps in the right direction :-)

We have CG tied up to effectively a 3 yr deal that is perfect IMO
