Falkirk: John McGlynn is happy at Burns but wonders what the money can bring

“Even in the short period I was back at Hearts, there was no money there at that time. It was going in the opposite direction. They were losing money. There was no money at Raith Rovers.

“It would be interesting if I was at a club with a blank checkbook, but I and… [assistant] pee [Smith] We managed to bend and dive, weave and weave, to bring the best team possible to the park.”

McGlynn was speaking after it was revealed that 21-year-old Sheffield United midfielder Louie Marsh had signed on loan.

“We got a little bit of money to qualify Louie and a little bit of money to get him [striker] “Brian Graham is there, but that’s about it,” the Scot said.

Premier League rivals Celtic, Rangers, Kilmarnock and now Aberdeen are looking for new managers this season, but McGlynn revealed: “No one has ever spoken to me.

“I’m happy to be here and to entertain the fans here.”

Celtic, now in charge of Martin O’Neill as caretaker manager for the second time this season, will be Falkirk’s next opponents on Wednesday.

“It’s an exciting prospect,” McGlynn said. “Obviously we were the first to experience Martin’s debut at Celtic Park.

“It didn’t go well, so we’ll look for something better.

“It’s different at Celtic Park with 50,000 fans behind their team. It’s going to be a slightly different atmosphere to Celtic Park with almost 7,000 fans behind us.

“We’re in a good place. We got nine points out of a possible 12. It’s a game we’re looking forward to.”
