Scosha Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 That does look like Ramsbottom. Oh ya fucker. I know supporters of teams who players previously played for often exaggerate how bad a player is, but he is genuinely without doubt the worst goal keeper I have ever seen at Morton and pretty much in professional football. It's no exaggeration to say he was directly at fault for at least one goal a game, often 2. Thankfully Hopkin realised what a clusterfuck of a signing he was and got Danny Rogers on loan to replace Ramsbottom. I hope you sign him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudtobeabairn Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Sometimes I think I'm fairly knowledgeable about Scottish football and then I'm reminded there are people out there who can recognise Sam Ramsbottom from distance in training gear 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only played a couple of games but generally looked quite shaky, would do fine as a cheap backup though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes not going to play anyway so as long as he's cheap as feck that's the main thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFC 1876 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Yeah as much as we just need a cheap back up to sit on the bench it would be safer to get someone who's actually capable of playing in goals as if the worst does happen and Robbie gets injured we'd be humped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Graeme bloody Bowman on the bench as a trialist last season. For any good training session you would want 2 keepers so not reading much into having people in for the first training session. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again your only requirement is for the guy to play the rest of that match. You then bring in a new no 1 as an emergency loan. The chances of that happening though are too low to pay a proper experienced goalie to sit on the bench so you have a young cheap body in case of emergency and to play in goals at training. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're wanting to sign someone as cheap cover you'd be better picking up some unknown teenager from the East of Scotland League or Ryan Stevenson, he's genuinely the worst goalkeeper I've ever seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colkitto Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Seriously Ramsbottom? He shouldn't be playing professional football. Nice lad but he's just not ready for any level of professional football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's loads of cheap alternatives out there. He's not signed anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFC 1876 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Probably one of the quickest and most boring games of spot the trialist ever. We not got any big steamroller centre halves in on trial? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a big, good shot stopper - sign him. As long as you don't mind every save being palmed to the opposition striker in the centre of the goalmouth to finish with ease, from literally anywhere he makes the save. He will talk up his stats for 'saves per game' completely neglecting that every save causes a goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just described a season with Fasan as No1 still cant get the Ayr Utd game where we were 2 nil up and he single handedly had responsibility of letting in 3 goals 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
