The management team of John McGlynn and Paul Smith have been impressed with the way Aaron has applied himself since joining the squad in pre-season training, initially signing as a youth player so that he could play a part in pre-season friendlies from the bench.

Assistant Manager Paul Smith told www.raithrovers.net: “John and I were greatly impressed with the way Aaron had looked after himself over lockdown, reporting back extremely fit and stronger than before.

"We’ve been aware of the progress he has been making, and has been on our radar the last 18 months he has been at FEFA.

"He has impressed greatly with his attitude and application since joining us in pre-season”
