Falkirk Ray of hope

- Stephen Crombie

In all honesty I’d much rather focus on the Scotland Women’s team this week. A fantastic achievemen­t by all involved in reaching the World Cup for the first time. If the Bairns could show half the grit and determinat­ion of our national ladies team then we could turn this season around!

The man to do this is Ray Mckinnon, the new Falkirk manager. I am delighted an appointmen­t has been made so promptly. Despite Falkirk being a bigger club than Morton it is a bold move for Ray to come from one at the top of the league to the bottom. But he obviously believes our situation can be turned around. He worked miracles in Greenock in a short time, hopefully he can replicate this at Falkirk.
