PLAYER PROFILE: Zak Rudden
But his agreement expires in January and with Rangers challenging at the top end of the Ladbrokes SPFL Premiership and strike options looking increasingly stretched, and Rudden in good form, there are growing fears at The Falkirk Stadium that Gers boss Steven Gerrard will look to restore him to the Ibrox set-up.
The Bairns though, would obviously love to keep him.
