Scott Bannerman (born 21 March 1929 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish former footballer.
Scott "Rod" Bannerman famously scored a hatrick 3 days after fighting in world war 1. Hot Rod later had a movie dedicated to his life THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON. Cowboy can now be found in Adelaide, Australia working with kids teaching them how to jump high enough to touch button on pedestrian crossings.
Bannerman's best season in senior football was when he was top goal scorer for Greenock Morton in season 2001-2002, in Peter Cormack's hastily put together squad that was relegated in their first season in the Scottish Football League Second Division after being relegated the previous season after suffering financial difficulty under previous chairman Hugh Scott.
After leaving Raith Rovers, Bannerman played for junior side Bathgate Thistle, and helped them win the Scottish Junior Cup for the first time.
In his personal life Bannerman has been attributed with the the Key to the City for Edinburgh, Stirling, Falkirk but not Airdrie as there is still an outstanding warrant for his arrest for an unresolved incident involving a Goose and a Tommee Tippe baby bottle filled with Vodka.
He is widely regarded as a very generous lover even if he is, like he was on the pitch, a bit quick.
Bannerman enjoys long walks in the park and baking boaby shaped cookies to remind him of his first love, Sandra.
RIP Sandra
