Your user name is interesting if that alludes to how long you have been a supporter, because in that time ive seen in no particular order....

    Hamish,
    Thompson,
    Main,
    Sieb,
    Guido,
    The Monk,
    Rado,
    Zaluska
    Pernis,
    Combe,
    Gallacher,
    Maxwell,
    Bullock,
    Bell,

    Thats 14 before i even think about Benji, but some of those had very shaky starts as well, but they were all given time, and i think Birigitti needs that as well.
    Just shows you it's all about opinions, eh?
    I would put the following all before Benji
    Hamish,
    Thompson,
    Sieb,
    Guido,
    The Monk,
    Rado,
    Zaluska
    Pernis,
    Maxwell,

    A good servant to the club but I was never that confident in Main

    Agree with a few of the others being ahead of Benji - we have had some very good keepers over the years

    I have rewatched the AZ goals. The keeper could be questioned at least for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th goals.

    He doesn’t seem to expect the shots and either doesn’t move or the ball goes through him

    The 3rd he just comes for cross and totally misses it

    I have the fear in having to persist with this all season

    I honestly think we should give Erikson a chance in the next two games. If he’s up for it, he keeps the jersey. If he’s not, we get in Clark before the end of the window. We can’t go beyond Aug like this.

    Watt, Behich, Smith. The list goes on.

    I get the concern but I'm just as concerned about our centre backs. Edwards looks completely devoid of confidence and Mulgrew has been playing for a while like he thinks he's Baresi.

    They all need to take a look at themselves not just the keeper.

    I'd have to look it up but I think it was not long after Hearts scored their first, the ball bounces over our CB's towards the bye line. It was definitely not going out but Edwards just stood and looked at it. Complete chaos.

    were excellent.

    Main still gives me the horrors the way he flapped at crosses in the Motherwell final and
    Bullock I remember the ball bouncing at his feet and going in.
    The reason that Celtic have signed Benji is clearly they have watched him closer than you.
    And i think you missed "IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER".

    And i think the reason Ceptic signed the man named Ben is they know he would be happy getting splinters!
