JOHN MCGLYNN walked into a Stadium of Fright at Falkirk - but is now in dreamland after joining Brendan Rodgers in the band of Invincible immortals.
The Bairns boss crowned a sensational unbeaten. League One season with the PFA Scotland Manager of the Year award at the weekend.
And McGlynn admitted he took a huge gamble in signing up for Falkirk as the place was a managerial graveyard in recent years.
The former Hearts and Raith gaffer brought the club back to life though and reckons he can rest easy after securing the side's spot in history.
McGlynn said: "Brendan's not been on yet but he did get in touch when we won the league and he was very complimentary.
"I'm led to believe there's only three other managers [in the modern era, Rodgers and Gers pair Steven Gerrard and Ally McCoist] so it's a nice club to be in.
