Rocky or Ross ?

[southern hibby]

Question now is do wee Keep Ross in goals or bring back Rocky?

My view is keep Ross in goals. Made some good saves yesterday and for me deserves to keep the jersey.

Also what a dilemma that we haven't had for a good few years who to give the gloves too for the next game.

Ross has definitely earned the right to keep his place in the starting 11. Some cracking saves at Parkhead.

[Scorrie]

I prefer Laidlaw to be honest.

[lord bunberry]

Laidlaw probably should keep the gloves, but I've got a feeling that he'll go back to Rocky. They're both good goalkeepers, it must be a hard decision for Lennon. I suspect Rocky cost us a few quid, and that might just be the reason he gets the nod.

[fife hfc]

Laidlaw is a good goalie and is more confident on the high ball. He hasn't done anything to get himself dropped so is the man in possession of the jersey so deserves to keep it.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Laidlaw has to play. I know that Marciano was not actually dropped but it would send the wrong message if he walks straight back in.

[Hibee Mac]

Has to be Laidlaw for me, has not set a foot wrong all season and made some great saves the last few games, our best keeper this season so far so would be stupid to drop him.

[DH1875]

Surely he has to keep the jersey

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

Ross Laidlaw all day long for me.

[Billy Whizz]

Ross has the gloves, his to keep at the moment. Wonder how Lennon views it though, as he’s the man who makes these decisions

[connerg]

Ross Laidlaw.

[Thecat23]

Ross must keep his place in the team.

[Thegreenside]

Has to be Laidlaw until there is a case for him to be dropped I.e. making a mistake. In the last two games argueably saved us three points

[Pretty Boy]

Laidlaw.

Players should be picked on merit and he's come in and done little wrong.

[NAE NOOKIE]

If Rocky had been playing brilliantly before the Livingston game then I could see the case for bringing him back in, but he wasn't, culminating in a poor game against Motherwell. Since taking over the gloves Laidlaw has made a number of important saves and showed he can handle the pressure at Celtic Park ............ The position should be his to lose now, that's tough luck for Marciano but I really cant see a case for dropping Laidlaw.

The very least of Lennon's considerations should be how much Rocky cost us or what wage he is on .......... its a stupid manager indeed who places these matters over form when he picks his team.

[Vault Boy]

I'm starting to think that Laidlaw might be the better keeper in general. Deserves to keep his spot, no doubt.

[Argylehibby]

I've said for some time Ross is the better keeper and he's done nothing over last couple of games to change my opinion. Should be Laidlaw starting.

[neil7908]

I'm a fan of Marciano but Laidlaw has to retain his place.

[lord bunberry]

One of the problems with having two good keepers is that as soon as one of them has a bad game, there's calls to bring in the other keeper, especially if it's a mistake in a big game. I don't think it's a good idea to chop and change goalkeepers all the time. It's a pretty strange situation that we find ourselves in. Rocky wouldn't have been dropped if he hadn't made himself unavailable, but in his absence Laidlaw has played well. I'm guessing that whoever starts the next game will be the keeper for the rest of the season. As I said earlier, I think he'll go back to Rocky.

[Brooster]

Laidlaw is the best goalie at the club in my opinion.

[MWHIBBIES]

Laidlaw until he makes 1 mistake and becomes hopeless like Rocky

[Billychaotic182]

100% Ross. He was fantastic yesterday. A lot is made of Gordon’s save but Ross also had a good few yesterday also. His is place to lose. He’s been more than capable to defend the sticks!

[blackpoolhibs]

The save last week against Ross County was superb, and he had another yesterday too in the first half that kept us in the game at 0-1.

Rocky has not been on top form, and Laidlaw has come in for these two games and given Lennon something to think about.

I think the right decision would be to keep things as they are for now.

[Firestarter]

International Goalkeeper has to come back in. Ross has all the potential to be our number 1 for a good few years but Marciano is our first choice 'Keeper.

Why is Rocky hopeless?

Why is Rocky hopeless?

He isnt, he's a top keeper on a 4 year deal who isnt going to sit on the bench.

[superfurryhibby]

Laidlaw keeps the gloves. Well deserved in my book.

[Vini1875]

Don't think there is much to choose between them, which is great to have two keepers that exchange places without dropping standards and that will push each other to maintain the number one spot.

[Peevemor]

When I see the title, I keep thinking this thread is about Deacon Blue.

[Heisenberg]

Think Lennon will bring Rocky straight back in. Laidlaw has done very well and could definitely feel hard done by if that does happen.
