FALKIRK WHEEL IS FINE BY ME

Luke glad he's punished as a team-mate, not an opponent

LUKE GRAHAM’S happy to pay the £6 fine for leaving the door open at Falkirk Stadium – because now he’s on the right side of it.

The 20-year-old Dundee loanee has quickly found his place in the Bairns’ high-flying squad, where ‘The Wheel’ – the team’s spin-for-your-sins punishment tool – handed him a fine for his dressing room slip-up.

But having been part of a Montrose side Falkirk ripped apart 7-1 on the day the League One title was clinched, Graham reckons he’s got off lightly.

The defender made his home debut in Saturday’s 2-0 win over Ayr, paving the way for tonight’s clash with Livingston and the chance to go top.

It’s a scenario the youngster could not have imagined on that brutal evening back in March when he was tasked with trying to shut out John McGlynn’s men in full flow.

Asked if it’s nicer being part of this Falkirk side than trying to stop them, Graham said: “Definitely! Playing against them last year, it was definitely a tough game.
