yoda Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 McGovern was probably the last genuinely good goalkeeper County had. And he left a decade ago this summer. He's the best keeper I've seen at County. Fraser, Brown, Reguero, McCarey, Fox, Woods, and Laidlaw have all had a shot at it since then and they've mostly been rubbish. Fox stands out as the exception but he was never one of the better goalkeepers in the league. He was fine but never consistently brilliant. Daniel Bachmann and Paul Gallacher made a couple of appearances between them too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alta-pete Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Just as I’ve been tagged into the thread, for my tuppenceworth Shagger is head and shoulders above the rest, verging - if not surpassing - prime Goram (I’m still debating that in my own head before coming to any sort of conclusion). Alnwick, formerly of Ibrox, has always been very good whenever I’ve seen him and I don’t know where Hldaky went but I also liked him whenever I saw him. Taking myself full circle, I’d wager either Alnwick or Hldaky will be at Rangers when Shagger is on the wane - maybe 22/23 and they can be confident of taking the no.1 spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the wages Salford pay (and he’s the no.1?) you can’t really blame the guy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be on big wages for sure but there was no contact from Rangers about him just paper talk If any of you know any footballers yourself in your family or as mates,they will tell you themselves that papers are noncence even if they bother reading them Hlacky isn't a bad keeper though a loss to Scottish football for sure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me McGregor’s not up there with Goram. As far as Rangers keepers go I’d put Klos above him too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 That’s why I’m still debating with myself. Don’t have, nor can I be arsed looking for, the absolute stats but Shaggers got the clean sheets, I think, because of the defence in front of him. Maybe it’s blue tinted hindsight spectacles but I remember both Goram and Klos pulling off consistently show stopping saves to keep us in the game/league while Shagger had to occasionally put his cigar down to parry away some impudent upstarts attempt to ruin his day. Team game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team game. I think it’s between McGregor and Goram tbh. Klos was great, but he also had clearly defined weaknesses, his kicking in particular was... inconsistent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zamora Fan Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Can’t be arsed doing a full list, but think it’s worth saying (maybe no) that Zander Clark would not have made the save Laidlaw just did from Elyounoussi. Would have Clark a fair bit lower than most people have him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Tammy 1297 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Lee Camp has left Coventry after two months as cover were he never played experienced keeper 36 spent most of his career in championship Could still probably do a job up here he is a steady reliable safe pair of hands Kieran Westwood might be leaving Sheff Wed next year to he is same age better than the keepers at Celtic just now could be a shrewd move as they like there Irish lads decent free be 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Stefan Klos is comfortably the best keeper to have played in Scotland in my lifetime. McGregor is nowhere near as good. There could be an argument given that he's currently more important to the Rangers team than Klos ever was though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
