My Take
Goalkeepers fascinate me because they live by a cruel arithmetic, and Andy Goram embodied it gloriously. Born in England yet adored in Scotland, crowned Rangers' greatest-ever keeper by the fans themselves, he earned the simple, perfect nickname The Goalie. What I love most is the dual-sport audacity, representing Scotland at cricket too. That kind of all-round athleticism feels like a vanished breed. His death in 2022 at fifty-eight came far too soon, but the devotion he inspired tells you everything. To me, he is the patron saint of unglamorous, indispensable excellence.
