He's done nothing all season. Error and calamity city.

Then he pulls off that. My God.

That's how close Hibs were to three points.

Let's put the Dons in their place

Is it just me or are other teams keepers continually having good games against us?
I can't wait till one of them has a mare.

Whittaker should really have scored, but all the same a ridiculous save.

Almost as good as the save he made from Jones' header all those years ago. Guys is a quality keeper, always has been.

That save was at 1-1. So I don't think it had that big an effect on the result.

Would have been nice if he'd applied a fraction of that effort in the game against England.

:agree: He's got the heart the size of a flea when it comes to coming out for crosses.

Sorry but as much as it was a good save if Whitty had smashed that it’s in. He’s thought he’s scored and tapped it! But to get across Gordon has done well. I’m not having a go at Whitty btw, more that the save wasn’t as good as what folk were saying.

The one in the derby from Jones was world class and miles better!

I agree.

More annoyed we didn't score to be honest.

The ball came to Whittaker at a height that stopped him smashing it in. As much as I hate giving that hearts ******* any credit, it was a spectacular stop mate.

Aye but if Whittaker scores then the pattern of the game is totally different and we don't know if the 'third' would or wouldn't have happened.

So was McGinn's second a smashing goal or did Gordon mess up?

Rodgers should just get a hypnotherapist on the Celtic staff who can convince Gordon he's playing against Hibs every game.

Was at the game and it's a difficult angle to see exactly what happened but the shot seemed to go over Gordon rather than to the side

Just watched it again on the highlights thread, think it’s just the power that’s beat him. Great strike to be honest, both McGinns goals were great.

Agreed - the game on 24th October 2017 would do for me.

Was he not just mid-dive trying to cover the first header, and Whittaker just happened to smash it where his hands were ending up anyway?

Yes, that's how I saw it, but the hearts ******* was in the right place at the right time. There's no doubt in my mind that he's a ****

Indeed sold both in that game. Thought Whitty should have scored.

Guy's a welt. Has been since the Shiels penalty and always will be for me. In this case, his momentum and flapping arms were in the right place at the wrong time for us.

He just covered all the right spots - ironically. :wink:

This thread is class.

Craig Gordon pull off a world class bit of goalkeeping and people are talking it down as if it was lucky or just a bit fortunate.

Ask yourself what you would have said had it been Laidlaw who had done it at the other end!

I’d personally have said the same. Again It’s also a bad miss. Whitty was great on sat but he puts his foot through it it’s in. He’s hit it with the inside of his foot and Gordon’s thrown himself and got there in time.

Again good save, not world class no where near it imo. Jones at ER was world class so was his save at Sunderland.

Its a great save, dont get me wrong, but he is on his way down as soon as stokes goes for it. If you watch the reply he is basically in the position to save it before whitty hits the ball, and whitty hits it straight at him. Still a good save but i think its one of those that happen so fast I dont think even gordon knew too much about it. In the right place at the right time springs to mind

I have to accept what you say as there's no way to prove otherwise but you just need to look at the Ross County thread to see where I'm coming from. Laidlaw made a few routine saves in that game that people were describing as 'excellent' and 'outstanding' etc.

Also people saying that Laidlaw had no chance with the second Celtic goal. If Laidlaw had no chance when the ball was hit very close to him from 18 years with a number of players between him and then all then what chance did Gordon have from 1 yard out, complete opposite side of the goal and no defence to help out?

Now I don't think Laidlaw was anywhere near being to blame for the goal and it was a very difficult one to save but Im just using it to compare against Whittakers chance, which was a much harder one to keep out, to show how well Gordon did. I don't think you'll see a save as good as that all season.

Depends how you look at it. Your description of events are right but you obviously evaluate it a bit differently.

For me it wasnt coincidence that Gordon was in the right place at the right time. It was a top class goalkeeper doing what he does best. He reacted to the situation instantly after Stokes got the touch and got in ahead of Whittaker. I think he knew exactly what he was doing.

Sorry but Craig Gordon is anything but Top Class! Good goalkeeper...yes, but that's about is good is he get's. :agree:
