Raith Rovers: Former Rovers stars Tom Lang and Brad Spencer are reunited with ex-boss John McGlynn at Falkirk
After leaving Raith Rovers this summer upon the expiry of their contracts, centre back Tom Lang and defensive midfielder Brad Spencer have been reunited with their ex-Stark’s Park gaffer John McGlynn at League One outfit Falkirk.
Lang, 26, has departed Kirkcaldy after making 40 appearances for Raith since the 2021-22 campaign.
His time with Rovers was severely disrupted by an Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) knee injury, which kept him out for 10 months before he returned to the fold in January.
After joining Falkirk, Lang Tweeted: “Delighted to be here at Falkirk FC. Really looking forward to the challenge ahead and to play a part in getting this club back to where it belongs.”
Spencer, 27, spent four years at Raith, making a total of 126 appearances.
He Tweeted: “Delighted to sign for Falkirk FC. Excited for a new challenge and can’t wait to get started.”
On Lang, Bairns boss McGlynn commented on the mentality and talent that he will bring to the side.
“He’s a winner and he influences the team with his attitude,” he said. “He would run through brick walls to win challenges, to win headers, to block shots, all while being able to play at the same time.”
As for Spencer, McGlynn added: “He’s got great experience and has been excelling in the Championship for the past four years.
“He’s a central midfield player who can go from box to box, he can build the game, he’s got a great passing range and he’s got a bit of dig about him as well. He’s got a good engine, lots of energy.”
