Now days away from a first appearance at a major tournament, Gordon considers all of those who never made it, from former team-mates to his first coach at Tynecastle, Jim Stewart. "I actually feel sorry for him that he's going to miss out on this," he says of Scotland's goalkeeping coach of 16 years. "He had so long with Scotland. Stevie Woods has taken over now and he's a lucky charm, having managed to qualify for a finals so soon. Jim's been there and done it with the national team as player – I think it was the World Cup in '74 he went to – and then to be the goalkeeping coach and not make it – I do feel sorry for him."
