“I have known Scott for a number of years. When I was at Fife Academy he was a player at Raith Rovers and was going through his ‘A’ licence, he came in to help coach our kids and I could tell that he was going to be a good coach. He was very conscientious and keen to learn. He had a great manner with the kids and because he’s played at the highest level he has that respect and players look up to him.”
