Coach is what the Proctor ordered

- Andrew Bargh

Airdrie boss Stephen Findlay has hailed the addition of David Proctor to his coaching staff as a “great capture”.

Former Diamonds player Proctor has returned to the club where he spent two seasons in 2007 and 2014/15.

Findlay this week hailed the quality of the additions to his playing staff, but is equally as excited with Proctor’s signature.

He told the Advertiser: “I’m absolutely delighted to have David on board with us for next season.

“We’ve known each other for a long time and he’s got great experience in the game.

“It wasn’t quite a pact, but we’ve always had an ambition to work together in management.

“The agreement was whoever became a firstteam manager would bring the other on board.

“I’m really looking forward to working with him.”

Meanwhile, Findlay expects next season’s League One campaign to be even more competitiv­e than the one which has just ended.

He added: “I really think anyone can beat anyone next season.

“There’s no outright favourite for the league and we must pick up results at the right place and right time.”
