been here before Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Always thought he was thrown in way too young by Levein and had to grow making his mistakes in the first team which has broken his confidence. Seems a decent enough laddie but juat doesnt seem to have what it takes to make it at decent level. Never knew Ross Callachan was up there on loan.

dsk1210 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I can't believe Levien started him as the number one one keeper that season after he had been trying to flog him in the summer..

Keepers are only ever described as ‘good shot stoppers’ if they are a bit crap. I suppose the assumption is that this should be the minimum expectation?

The Duke Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The good shot stopper label always confuses me as well although it can be applied to Hamilton as he is prone to some outrageous reflex saves. However, far too inconsistent and error prone. Seeing him on TV tonight he looked quite lean, in decent shape clearly but he should have saved that shot!

Scored a few goals in those shitty games away to Hamilton. Those are the types of games you need goals. He's got a better goals to games ration than some of our strikers this season. He wasn't a world beater but I felt like he could have had a career in the top flight (albeit for a smaller team than ourselves). Jambo too.

letsalldothebeattie Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Nice guy terrible goalkeeper. Can see him being a decent keeper down in League 2 or Lowland in a year or two though. Not cut out for a top level career Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 It wasn’t his fault that he ended up in goal for us. It was a crass attempt by the club to deflect from the fact that we didn’t have a suitable keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave McCreery's knee Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Seem to remember he started well for us until a rangers game when he made a couple of bad mistakes behind a shocking defence.

mitch41 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 You might remember that Neilson wanted to make Hamilton Hearts No. 1 and that’s why Alexander who didn’t rate Hamilton left.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Anything above his head and getting off his line, 2 huge weaknesses.

Alexander was in the Dundee United dugout this afternoon - presumably their GK coach under Robbie so if they fell out, they've made up.

I wouldn't say he's particularly tall in all honesty, especially for a goalkeeper. Nowhere near good enough for us but did send Kenny Miller for the pies if I remember correctly after taking a horrendous first touch.
