Getting fit after shattering your hip is one thing but then throwing yourself around as a 'keeper is another. John Calder is finding his feet again in goal after more than two years out. He has been thrown in at the deep end at Elgin City as regular number one Peter Donnelly is injured.  Elgin manager Ross Jack explained: "I am delighted that John is doing well as he lost part of his career to a really bad injury when he was younger. He was with Inverness Caledonian Thistle as a youth player and had his hip shattered and he to get it rebuilt through fairly complex surgery. We signed him from a local Junior side in January and you have to admire him for battling his way back to playing professional football."
