'It was his bad knee that was swollen' - Falkirk boss John McGlynn reveals why Tom Lang missed out on Cove Rangers trip


The defender, who had played every minute of the League One campaign up until the 1-0 victory in Aberdeen, missed out on the trip north due to a swollen knee.
And McGlynn is hopeful that the injury is simply a reactionary one after the 26-year-old suffered the knock during last weekend’s 1-1 draw with Annan Athletic.

“It is his bad knee, the one that he suffered a cruciate injury with, so we need to be super careful with that situation. We are hoping it is just a simple case of trauma that will calm down.”
Former Raith Rovers ace Lang suffered a horror ACL injury playing for the Kirkcaldy club back in 2022 which saw him face a ten month spell out of action.
