A Scottish international who answered the call from Manchester United in March 2001 after the club were hit by a massive injury crisis.
Injuries to Fabien Barthez and Raimond van der Gouw were compounded by the earlier sale of Mark Bosnich to Chelsea. That left the Red Devils with just American rookie Paul Rachubka on their books, a stopper who had only ever featured in three games previously.
United took the Motherwell 'keeper on loan, as UEFA would not allow them to buy him and be eligible to play in the Champions League. United paid 'Well £100,000 for the three month loan deal - the fee they had actually agreed for a permanent move.
Gorman will become a Motherwell player again one day before his contract expires in the summer.
Goram started his career at Oldham before enjoying long, successful stints with both Hibernian and Rangers.
Short stays at Notts County and Sheffield United followed before it seemed that he would finish his career with Well.
But when the SOS call came from Sir Alex Ferguson, it was too big a chance to pass up and Goram signed on the dotted line.
