schillaci Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Genuinely looks like he is not prepared to let personal standards drop. Maybe he loves his job and understands the huge privilege it is to be well paid for something most of us would do for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gorgie Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Craig is the only good thing about our squad atm. Has he kept the most clean sheets so far in the league? Wouldn't be surprised if he hadn't but I don't put any blame on him for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you he has produced a fair few of those already this season. So he may be his own worst enemy in that regard! If someone told me the entire squad would be binned tomorrow, Craig would be the only one I’d be bothered about.

Spellczech Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 My Celtic fan mate is furious that their GK position has gone backwards so far with Bain and the Greek guy when they could've just had Gordon step back in to replace Forster....Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially Boyce as well Possibly the high standards he has , It just too me looked as though he went late. You know when a striker is on their heels and can’t quite get in the end of a run. Felt like one of those to me. I wouldn’t have said it would be a wonder save a good one yes. Id imagine hes a bit frustrated with himself. However I wouldn’t blame him at all for the goal. The defence was all at sea and horrendously caught out. The boy had acres of room. Id imagine with that amount of room Craig probably expected him to come in on goal a bit too.

I don’t think there are two better keepers in Scotland than McGregor and Gordon and we are lucky to have him. we would not be in the Championship if he had come in last January.

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Even with the shitest shitbag team of shitebags last season, had Gordon been in goals we’d have stayed up.

Big Moysey Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 It must be difficult to stand doing nothing for most games then suddenly be called into action.

Quite a leap and what a difference it's made to us. There were many on here who didn't want him back. "He's tainted, too Celticky, one of them now, past it..." When he first came back, i thought he would be playing this season and then taking over as goalkeeping coach from that erse we have at the moment. A goalie that wandered about club to club in his career but was never really thought of as top quality. The coaching of Zlamal, Doyle & Pereira couldn't have been up to much if we couldn't make a decent goalie out of the three of them and who should've walked with McPhee, Daly and the rest of them. I still think Gordon will become our goalie coach for years to come once he's had enough. It wouldn't surprise me if that was partly the reason he decided to come back to Hearts. Apart from celebrating against Hearts, saving a penalty against Hearts at Tynecastle and celebrating some more, as well as regularly slowing play down to waste time, he's still been one of the better goalies we've been lucky to have. And a great £9m quid in the back for him in 2007. Edited February 24, 2021 by jambonian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
