Ross Laidlaw

Ross Laidlaw (born 12 July 1992) is a Scottish footballer who plays for Hibernian, as a goalkeeper.

Laidlaw began his playing career for Raith Rovers's under-19 side. He progressed to the senior side and appeared on bench on two occasions during the 2010–11 season.

He featured in pre-season friendly matches in advance of the 2011–12 season, the final of which was against Southend United in a scoreless draw. Following the departure of Andrew McNeil he became the regular back-up goalkeeper to David McGurn.

However he suffered a setback, injuring his knee, with Raith having to sign Ludovic Roy as a temporary replacement. Having recovered he returned to the team & made his senior debut on the 3 March 2012 against Greenock Morton, keeping a clean sheet in 5–0 home victory.

On 22 January 2015, he joined Elgin City on loan. His last game for Elgin was in April 2015, a 5–4 defeat against Annan Athletic. Laidlaw returned to Raith after this loan spell, but failed to displace Kevin Cuthbert as first-choice goalkeeper. In December 2015 Laidlaw suffered a torn kidney, which kept him out of action for the rest of the season. Laidlaw left Raith at the end of the 2015–16 season.

On 6 July 2016, it was announced that Laidlaw had signed for Hibernian. He made his first appearance for Hibernian in the second leg of a UEFA Europa League qualifier against Brondby. Laidlaw kept a clean sheet as Hibs won 1–0 on the night, but were knocked out of the competition after a penalty shootout.
