    Was Woods a very good keeper then?

    This. Even if he played for Leyton Orient and being capped for England he would cost 10-15 mill+. Just hope Celtic handle his contract well so he dont walk for peanuts.

    Forster is on 1035 minutes in the League. Still needs to go another 3 games and 7 minutes in the League to beat that.

    I've never been one for records, even saying not so long ago that the unbeaten record wasn't that important.

    But as the season progresses it starts to become more appealing, record broken today, other records to aim for, unbeaten, it all starts to add up and make sense.

    We need things to shoot for and the team is responding to it.

    Long may it continue.

    Forster isn't on an all competitions run of 1098 minutes though? Barcelona was after the Hearts Cup game.

    So he is, he is actually only on 918 minutes minutes overall which means he needs to get to the 89th minute of the St Johnstone game to beat Woods record :50:

    He is on 1098 minutes in domestic football.

    A big congrats to Forster for getting the Celtic clean sheets record today. A very impressive achievement to go this long without giving up a goal. :50:

    He's great in boring games like today where he's got nothing to do for 89 minutes but has to stay concentrated and make one good save, yet he's also fantastic in backs-to-the-walls games like vs Barca where he makes 10 or 11 stops.

    Give him 60k a week on a 9 year deal right * now.

    Surely he would be more suited to the England No1 than Hart?

    Forster has a mix of games; League games where he has nothing to do for 89 and a half minutes but always maintains his concentration, CL qualifiers which are very high pressure, Cup finals, CL games where he is called into action for 89 and a half minutes

    Well done to the big man, incredible achievement.

    Credit needs to go to the defence too so have been excellent.

    The big man won the El Oscar in the spanish newspaper Marca this week. I can't think of any other player in Scotland who has ever won it

    I says in another thread I really can see him replacing valdes when he leaves after this season why not? When do barca really come under pressure when they so you see valdes flop most times he's off anyway definetley so why not Forster?

    Not like they can get any big name keeper right now

    That guy on talksport drivetime just said it should not count the record of clean sheets because of what league they are in
