Yep have had some great goalies at ER but none we made ourselves of ANY note since THomson Allan in 1963! now even by mistake we should have had a few home grown goalies, we have had guys over that time in every postiotion except Goalie!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Now look at Hearts, can think of a few, Rangers a few, god even Celtic have produced a couple over the same time. Maybe we under value goalies, maybe we just dont want to give youth a chance in that department? Whatever the reason it must change as we have to produce guys in all positions over the next few years.

Andersson did ok but didn't play for us for that long.
But how about Jim Leighton? He was at least competent, I thought.

But I remember him performing well for us at Ibrox against the odds. And driving the filth in the Copeland to froth with a bit of keepie uppie to run the clock down.

It would seem that there was more to Ollie the Goalie than meets the eye - going by the following link he must have pulled in favours from his contacts in Panini in an effort to throw the authorities off the scent....

Budgie was after Leighton, I thought?
Those two - and Budgie - were worth at least 15 points a season to us, at a time when a win got us 2 points.

Remember him getting his chance when Rough broke his ankle at East Fife and done ok for a few games then let in a howler at the cave end to St Mirren in a 3-2 defeat iirc. Never played much after that.

Budgie was in the League Cup winning side in '91; Leighton was in the side that lost to the Huns 2-1 in '94.

The point is, he hasn't played at a standard (noticeably) better than Hibs so your inference that Hibs made him a bad keeper is based on little other than emotion. imo of course.Last edited by Speedy; 26-07-2014 at 09:09 AM.

Is Nick Colgan employed by any club ? Has been a great ambassador for our club and seem to remember reading that he lived in Borders . Maybe someone who might play a part in the future .

IIRC both Colgan and Andersson did not come to the club as established keepers. At one point, wasn't Andersson third choice? I am sure that Colgan came in on a freezer from Bournemouth, and was very much a who(?) addition. Bit confusing that we have had quality and not known it.
