Gillan’s poems, written in Falkirk dialect, have already attracted the attention of Scots poetry aficionados, as well as those interested in the Bairns’ glory days under manager William ‘Daddy’ Nicol.
A reprint is now looking likely as and there are only a few copies left from the first print run of 100.
They’re available from the club shop, priced £12, or by texting 07906 239582.
Titled The Football Poems of William Gillan: Falkirk FC, the Golden Years, 1906-1914, the book also includes a commentary by club historian Michael White and statistics for the seasons concerned.
