    Scott Bain should be put into the team ... gordons as much of a bomb scare as our CB’s at times and how many times is he gonna kick the ball straight out the park. At fault for the 2nd goal and looks as if he doesnt give a * half the time

    * joke this guy was viewed as an adequate replacement for Forster, who was a CL level gk that we got decent money for, especially when Brendan wanted him out the door from day one...how the * is still playing for us is a mystery.

    Scott Bain isn't the answer, not by a long shot.

    Wish somecunt would boot Gordon into the stands the way he does the ball...

    That 30 seconds in the 2nd half when he launched one over McGregor out of play then pinged an identical one out to the right straight into the dugout

    Your heart just sinks

    Great comeback story, good shot stopper, nice guy, a weak link behind a shower of weak links who will stop us progressing as a footballing team because his decision making and passing are lower than SPFL level.

    We’ve needed a goalkeeper for 2 years minimum and we still don’t have one. It’s as big a blind spot for Rodgers as it was for O’Neill and someone he trusts should tell him it’s time to go and buy a reliable goalkeeper that can make a 20 yard pass.

    Still baffles me that a professional football player can't pass a ball.

    The fact that people are crying out for Scott Bain gives me the fear. Gordon is ten times the keeper Bain is and Gordon can't kick a ball.

    His distribition was brutal, but i'm more annoyed at our defenders and their inability tae defend.

    He kicked the ball out the park 3 times in 4 minutes at the start of the 2nd half, we conceded shortly afterward. Absolutely shocking.

    Gordon didn't make a save tonight..

    Gordon continually gave the ball away..

    I think I know who would've been better tonight for a side playing from the back..

    There was 1 where Broony was pointing and shouting for him to go wide right to Hendry. He went left straight over KT'S head and out of play..

    Bain is not the answer, simple as.

    Describing him as "a good shot stopper" is just a fallacy, mainly to detract from his awful kicking. He is simply woeful.

    There is no doubt we need a better keeper for Europe especially when we play the ball back to the keeper so often.

    Summed up perfectly when Griff won the ball probably 35 yards away from goal in the second half, it ends up all the way back to Gordon who then proceeds to put the ball out of play. Infuriating.

    Makes Cech look like Scholes.

    Lost times the amount he punted it straight out the park.

    Never said he was..

    Would've been better for us tonight and certainly in home game's where we'll have most of the ball..

    We've seen him like three times. Gordon we know can make huge saves in huge games. If we want to replace Gordon it needs to be with better than Bain.

    We just gonna go round and round..

    Gordon is past it and an embarrassment with the ball at his feet..

    Bain isn't the long term answer but is much better suited to spraying it about and the way we play..
