Higginbotham joins Falkirk
Recent released winger Kallum Higginbotham has headed North and signed a contract with Scottish First Division side Falkirk.
Higginbotham's release from the club came across very much as a touch and go decision, after much improved performances in the final year of his three year contract at the club.
But despite scoring the goal of the season against Accrington, Higginbotham's time at Dale, and despite interest from a number of League Two sides, Higgy has opted to try his luck North of the Border.
Higginbotham has signed a two year contract with the Bairns, much to the pleasure of Falkirk boss Steven Pressley who admitted to have Higginbotham watched on a number of occasions over the past season.
With Higginbotham joining Falkirk, there are now four former Dale players of recent years plying their trade in Scotland, with Patrick McCourt and Matty Hughes at Celtic, and Rory McArdle at Aberdeen.
What to read next:
A point gained for the Swans : Allen isn’t dead Baggies ! Just over 14,600 attended this game at the Swansea.com. Take away the visitors support and around 13,000 Swans fans were allegedly at this game. Season ticket holders are always included whether there or not and the ground look very bare. If there was eleven thousand home fans at this game I would have been surprised. That’s a good few thousand who have stayed away this afternoon. And well down to what we could have expected on the last Saturday before the majority return to work on Monday.
Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion, plus Villa winger out of reach This morning we focus on a game which has lost itself to what we can call ‘football fatigue’ Especially after some of the extraordinary fall out after Luke Williams press conference yesterday afternoon. Unbelievable nonsense on one of the other websites, faceless, nameless and very obsessive.
Swansea City : The Luke saga drags on and on : What’s next today ? As the many thousands of views dictate on this website we continue to report matters of interest as we did yesterday morning on Luke Williams. A fairly concise and pertinent piece by our site owner. I suppose what every writer relies upon is for the reader to actually understand what is being said.
Swansea City : Does Luke know what he is doing to our club ?There has been much comment and it has to be said bar a few abusive idiots on social media a lot of frustration on those platforms regards Harry Darling and Luke Williams. Much of this brought about by the reluctance of Luke Williams to just clarify his position at Swansea City.
