If ever there was evidence then last night proved it beyond doubt. Craig Gordon is an absolute liability. If that tackle was during a European game he would have been off and facing a long ban. Our goalkeeping situation is deeply worrying. Gordon is probably a better shot stopper though parries it out into danger too often, De Vries is too casual with his passing and clearances and both of them are an absolute nightmare at set pieces. We are being sussed out at the back in every game now.
BR has to look for a new keeper now to get him in for the January window.

Why would a red card be dished out for the challenge in Europe and not here; as all the refs are anti-Celtic here apparently.

We certainly have a goalkeeping crisis lately and surely we must be able to sort this out with four on the books at present?
If we decide not to add another in January, maybe we can approach the SFA/ SPFL to introduce a policy of 'any man saves' or a 'backie-in'.

Although it would never happen I'd love Vorm with Fasan as back up and punt both Gordon and De Vries in Jan.

Gordon seems to not to be able to play under pressure . In many SPL games he used to be reasonable enough, made a few saves and few enough changers . When the stakes were higher in Europe the mistakes were plentiful . On Wednesday when he has a reasonable challenger for the number 1 spot, he seemed to be a nervous wreck and a mistake never seemed to be far away .
He seems to have a particular problem going for a ball that isn't his outside the box and loses himself.
