IN NUMBERS: Paul Hartley’s symmetrical Falkirk tenure
The Falkirk Herald understands of quartet of potential Bairns bosses, not all are Scottish.
Hartley’s assistant Gordon Young has been taking the squad ahead of Saturday’s league match in Dingwall.
McBookie continue to make ex-Ross County boss Jim McIntyre favourite for the role while odds have shortened on present Ayr United boss Ian McCall returning to the club. McCall refused to speak about the vacancy when a panellist on national radio last night.
Other names to have been touted for the role locally are Jim Duffy, David Weir, Lee Clark and David Hopkin.
