    What was he doing at the end?

    He let the ball roll on the ground for ages for no reason and Fernandez nearly got it.

    No wonder he didn't come here, we would have needed to take at least a 65% pay cut. His contract ends this year but I have no doubt a team will give him 40k plus even if to be back up.

    How's he ended up being their highest earner before the new Ward-Prowse deal?

    Some agent that is if true.

    90k down to 20-25k we never stood a chance. With that it mind who ever decided we could * CG about needs sacked.

    Our whole team decide to * Gordon whenever we play Hearts.

    * Craig Gordon.

    Could not agree more. One of a few ex players i really, really dislike.

    He seems to play out his skin when he plays against us.

    We let Craig Gordon go at the right time, he was completely done for us and there would have, rightly, been an uproar if he was kept as our first choice GK.

    He's definitely found his form again at Hearts, but I doubt he would have here, he's also a *.

    As for Forster, those wages are mental, what were Southampton thinking? Even half of that is probably out our regular price range.

    I still believe Gordon hasn't improved as much as people let on. He gives a * a bit more but he makes a meal of really * easy saves, which he did with us too.

    They were thinking they’d sell him for a profit before it got to that stage, his wages went up with loyalty bonuses every year

    True, but by anyone other than Barkas :giggle1:

    5 mil for a downgrade on Bain, got to be up there as our worst ever signing :s:

    Think it was sitting on his * behind Forster that made him want to go but Bain benched him the year before on merit

    * em, Gordon was better than what we have, I liked him and for me was an excellent servant to us.

    However Im happy where we are at, Hart is so easy to like on and off the park.

    Comes across quite bitter towards us. He should remember we saved his career

    CG was a good keeper and still makes important saves in games, i would have him back if we didn't have hart.

    He had been poor for quite a while, he also made mistake after mistake in Europe. If we didn't have Hart I'd rather have Siegrist or Marshall before him.

    He was * shocking for a while for us and deserved to lose his place to Scott Bain then Fraser Forster.

    Couple that with the sheer amount of * up’s he made for us, not a chance we needed far better than him. Thankfully we now have that.
