I fell into the trap of thinking Fod was better than Gordon but could ye imagine Fod being tasked with keeping up an unbeaten run for that long? 

Jock Stein's corpse could be the celtic keeper and they would probably still have kept up that unbeaten run.

Whenever any sort of pressure is put on Gordon he crumbles. His kicking is fucking awful and he's slow as fuck, his only decent attribute is his shot-stopping.

I like Fod but what pissed me off about him was his arse collapsing in front of the Broomloan Stand against celtic. He was visibly shaken and went on to have a nightmare. Mentally weak i think.

Least of our worries. He has cost us a couple of goals this season but players like Alves were costing us goals 3 games running, but IMO he’s never cost us games. 

Saved us from a tanking yesterday and played his part in beating Hibs as well

Think of how shite Gordon is

Then think of how far away from Champions League Football and International games Fod should be, there’s yer answer.

He’s woeful, he won’t get better.

Foderingham would walk into celtic's and Scotland's team

100% i think he is mentally weak at ibrox in general

Thought he could've done better with both goals tbh. One hits off him on the way in and the other is, yet again, hit into the massive space he constantly leaves for strikers when he gravitates towards his near post.

Let's praise him though because he "saved us from a pumping"

Out of all the things that's wrong at our club Fod is way down the list.

Not on the pitch he isn't.

2nd goal I'm maybe being overly harsh.

Not budging on the first one though

What goals are you talking about?

There's a lot worse than him on the pitch, Cordoso, Alves, Bates, Windass , Pena and Herrera to name a few.

[K.A.I 36,183]

I'd need to see both goals again but I thought Fod was alright yesterday and made some good saves. Him and possibly Danny Wilson were the only two that came close to getting pass-marks and I feel strange saying Wilson as he's a center-half and we shipped 2 goals to Kilmarnock.

Fod does cost us some goals but I still think overall he's a decent enough goalkeeper. I don't think we could afford/attract better right now. 

As someone else said, out of all our problems he's way down the list for me.

Ones he conceded in training during the week.

Good, because if it was the goals at Kilmarnock you were talking about, I would have pissed myself laughing!

Glad you cleared it up!

[RowX 146]

Just watched the re-run of yesterday's game on BT (yes I must be soft in the head) but a couple of those saves before Killie scored were excellent reflex saves, add that to the saves v Hibs and I don't think we can really accuse him of letting us down.

He seems a bit emotional at times, gets a bit flustered with the crowd on his back when he's trying to push the players in front of him up the pitch, particularly at home.  But as many have said, he's the least of our troubles we could easily win a league with him.

Herrera is rarely on the pitch so I refuse to count him. Pena can do a job.

Cardoso and Alves have been underwhelming. Windass blows hot and cold and Bates is a championship player at best.

Foderingham is shit though and no matter what quality of player you put in front of him he'll still concede stupid goals because he has terrible positioning and dives in slow motion. He also lets himself get intimidated by the crowd so he's probably better off back in the lower leagues of England playing in half empty grounds every week.

I dont give him any chance with either goals from the weekend.

The first was from inside the six yard box and a tidy finish from Boyd and the second was going miles wide before taking a massive deflection. At the game I thought he misjudged the 2nd but watching the replays, he had no chance stopping it!

Did the first not hit off him on the way in against Kilmarnock? And did he not leave 2 thirds of the goal open for Boyd to aim at for the 2nd?

Some of the saves he made were even better on the highlights that I gave him credit for at the game!

He made 2-3 very very good saves!

No.

The first one didnt touch him and the second one caught him wrong footed as it took a defection. If anything it looped over him than into an area of the goal he left wide open.

1st goal is 4:06 and 2nd is 4:34

Very harsh, it's all about opinions though, I would keep Fod before all I mentioned earlier,

Fair enough.

Fod just reminds me of the guy at fives who isn't actually a keeper. He'll pull the wool over peoples' eyes with a few worldie saves that nobody expects him to make but then concede the ones you expect him to deal with easily.

Wilson caused the second goal imo, trying to bring a ball down that he should have booted clear.

He done something similar in the game V Ross County and got the ball nicked from him which lead to the goal.
