Aodhan Doherty has joined Falkirk on a season-long loan as the Northern Ireland Under-21 winger signed a new four-year contract with Blackburn Rovers. The 20-year-old had played 14 times for Linfield in Northern Ireland's top flight before joining the Championship club last summer and made his first-team debut for Rovers against Hull city in the FA Cup in January, before featuring in three league games later the same month. Falkirk manager John McGlynn says Doherty is not just a straight replacement on the left for Calvin Miller, who was sold to Hearts this summer, as he can play as a number 10 as well as out wide.
Falkirk manager John McGlynn says Ryan Strain fits a specific need at right-back after the former Dundee United man joined the Bairns on a free transfer. Strain, 29, is a familiar figure in the Scottish Premiership having played for St Mirren before joining United in 2024. Falkirk will be without Keelan Adams for approximately nine more weeks after he had an operation earlier this summer, while summer signing Jack McMillan is also injured.
Former Scotland boss Craig Levein thinks Falkirk manager John McGlynn "plays the type of football Scottish people want to see" as the search for Steve Clarke's successor continues. Despite signing a new four-year deal before the start of this summer's World Cup, the head coach stepped down following Scotland's elimination from the tournament in the US, Canada and Mexico. Levein, who was in charge of Scotland between 2009 and 2012, suggested Falkirk manager McGlynn could be a perfect fit.
Falkirk's John McGlynn would be the natural successor to Derek McInnes at Tynecastle should the Hearts head coach complete his expected move to Rangers, according to former Partick Thistle manager Kris Doolan. "If you are looking at the reason Hearts took Derek McInnes, it was his knowledge of Scottish football," Doolan told the BBC Scottish Football Podcast.
John McGlynn says Falkirk have added a "wealth of experience" to their squad by signing Scott Tanser after the left-back's five-year spell at St Mirren came to an end. Manager McGlynn says the former St Johnstone man's Scottish Premiership experience will be valuable to his side. "He's an attacking left-back who loves to get forward," the Falkirk boss added.
John McGlynn's side were the top seeds in Wednesday's draw after finishing sixth on their return to the Scottish Premiership and with the top five sides receiving byes to the second round because of their participation in European football. The Bairns won their group last season, finishing ahead of Cove Rangers, Queen's Park, The Spartans and Brechin City before losing to eventual beaten finalists Celtic in the second round.
