You’ve heard of the old saying ‘he couldn’t trap a bag of cement’ – well it seems Elgin City’s goalkeeper Mark Hurst is keen on redefining bad control.
Hurst’s problem wasn’t that his touch was too hard, quite the opposite in fact. It was his feather-like attempt and stopping the ball that left him horribly red-faced.
Facing Queen’s Park in the Scottish League Two, the hapless keeper attempted to receive a harmless throw-in with his first touch. Unfortunately, all he managed to do was flail at it with his shin.
The ball brushed past him and trickled into the empty net. Poor Mark…
