DAFC. Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Some man, Marshall. Now with Craig Gordon closer to a free bus pass than being able to buy a bottle of MD, we really are in bother in the goalkeeping department. Some laugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuttonDressedAsLahm Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 I’d like to think we’re coasting with 20 minutes to go, and we can get another keeper on in one of these games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Taking the Robert Snodgrass approach and retiring during an international break. Tbf you must get more love doing it that way than just leaving the WhatsApp group or whatever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clown Job Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Sad to see him go, but it is a bit strange to retire during an international break is it not? Wouldn’t be surprised if he makes himself available in case of an emergency since he’s a top guy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2426255 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Nice guy, happy for him - he's been good overall. It's nice of him to step aside and let the younger players get more of a chance too rather than hog a 2nd choice goalkeeping position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 There was a season where both McCrorie and Doohan looked like promising goalkeepers in the Championship. Both then had pretty uninspiring spells on loan in the Premier though, have no idea if there's any goalkeepers coming through capable of holding a candle to Marshall, let alone Gordon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G51 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 It’s not easy to see where the next keeper comes from once Gordon retires. Kelly has the gloves by default at the moment. Clark isn’t good enough and will almost certainly never be good enough. Some of it will depend on how Rangers goalkeeping situation shakes out in the next week or so. There’s a chance McLaughlin is Rangers number one for a season, and there’s a chance McCrorie gets shipped somewhere and gets another chance to prove himself. But even if McLaughlin does bridge the gap between Gordon and the next keeper, it would need to be a pretty short gap cos he’s a fair age. No idea what other young prospects are looking like with other clubs. Rangers have some hope for Jay Hogarth but guessing development at his age is almost impossible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 McLaughlin isn't good enough to be Rangers or Scotland number 1. He might end up the latter by default for a year or two, but I can't see Rangers not signing someone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hopefully we can sweet talk Angus Gunn or Ciaran Slicker into defecting over to Scotland. Man I wish one of Marshall/Gordon/McGregor was fifteen years younger 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albagubrath Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 It increasingly looks like we will have a period without a good club keeper rather than a top keeper, possibly for as long as four or five years, before another comes through to replace him. The main youth candidates are Cieran Slicker (who could jump to the head of the queue if he gets a good loan and performs well there), Harry Stone (who has already had an underwhelming loan for Partick Thistle) or maybe Harrison Sharp who has played a few times for Dundee. Jay Hogarth is only 18 so unlikely to be coming through anytime soon - he is behind Budinauckas in the Rangers youth setup I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I wish one of Marshall/Gordon/McGregor was fifteen years younger I'm not aware of Slicker playing for anyone but Scotland. The issue with Slicker is he is a 19YO keeper with no professional appearances. Until such time as he breaks into the City team (very, very unlikely) or goes on a successful loan, he isn't going to be troubling Scotland squads. He is only 19 so his first loan might yet be a couple of years away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any young lads in the Championship or League One? I’m always conscious that keepers mature late, and academy keepers rarely make the first team as there’s not often space. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigieboy86 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Craig MacGillivray from Charlton Angus Gunn from Norwich City Ross Sinclair from St Johnstone three blood young keeper in scotland they can replace Marshall, McLaughlin and Gordon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Assume Gordon will be around for the next campaign till Euro 2024, although he will be 41 and a half by the time the tournament kicks off. Can only hope we have another keeper playing regular first team football at a decent level before then, or we will probably be starting the World Cup 2026 campaign with Zander Clarke or Liam Kelly as number one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
