Standing tall at approximately 6 feet (183 cm), Ramage has always been known for his physical presence on the field. His weight hovers around 75 kg (165 lbs), making him well-suited for the demands of professional football. Although exact measurements of his body stats aren't publicly disclosed, his athletic build reflects years of dedication to fitness and the sport.
At the start of the 2005–06 season, Ramage found himself out of the starting eleven for Newcastle United in the first two months to the season. He made his first appearance of the season against rivals, Sunderland on 23 October 2005 and helped the club win 3–2.
After the match, manager Graeme Souness said about the player: "Now Ramage has to show he can too. It's always pleasing when a young player comes through the ranks. We now know Ramage can play anywhere across the back four.
Prior to Sunderland we didn't know if he could play at left-back – now we know." Ramage helped Newcastle United keep three consecutive clean sheets between 26 October 2005 and 5 November 2005.
Following this, the injury to teammate Stephen Carr allowed him to play a larger number of games for the club, as he made a good impression on both Graeme Souness and Glenn Roeder, who replaced Souness as manager in early 2006.
In early–January, Ramage suffered a shoulder injury, which was considered to be serious at first, but he quickly made a full recovery. Ramage then helped Newcastle United keep four clean sheets out of the club's five matches between 4 February 2006 and 25 February 2006.
However, Ramage was eventually lost his first team place by April, due to his errors and was demoted to the substitute bench for the rest of the 2005–06 season. It came after when his form began to falter, including giving away a goal, losing 2–1 against Manchester United on 13 March 2006.
Reflecting on his performance, local newspaper The Northern Echo said: "A centre-back by trade but solved the Magpies right-back problem by proving to be more than your average stop gap." At the end of the 2005–06 season, he was a first team regular in appearing in twenty-nine games in all competitions.

I love watching rugby and I love watching my dad. It's good to get away from football some time. When I was about 4 years old. It's just where I'm from. All I did was play football. My parents were strict of me to do my education and I was good at it. But I wanted to play football full time." Ramage also grew up supporting Newcastle United.
