Let's talk about lad who could give you more twists and turns than a cheap supermarket thriller - Connor Allan. Born on a cracker of a cold day in January 2004, a Scottish lad through and through, and now officially being around the sun 21 times. He's got more clubs behind him than he likely had birthday presents.
So, who is this illustrious Connor Allan? Well, for those of you who've been living under a rock, he's a footballer, primarily performing theatricals as a central defender for Falkirk. The lad stands 6ft 2in (1.89m) tall, weighing in at 12st 1lb (77kg). Not bad dimensions it seems, for one having to shoulder the burden of hopes and tears of football fans.
Let's dive into his thrilling journey that can only be found in the world of Scotties' football. Once upon a time, specifically in July 2019, young Allan tied his boots for the Rangers. Now it's safe, and in fact vital, to disclose that his career there ended with him being shipped off to the mythical giants of Kelty Hearts in September 2024, through the grand wonder of a modern football invention known as loan.
Presumably tired of the big name lights, Allan sought a quieter life over in Falkirk by February 2025, opting for a transfer that carried the prestige and mystery of an 'undisclosed fee'. However, struggle to understand as we might, Allan had not had enough of the loan system, and without letting the dust of transfer papers settle, was rehearsing another move to Kelty Hearts.
In a move rivalling the great unexpected plot twists, Allan found himself traipsing back to Falkirk in June 2025. Apparently, the lure of League One life wasn't as strong as the bright lights of the Premiership. He spent his time after that, well, honing his legendary status in League Cup 2025 - 2026 where he made his grand contribution of one start and a total of four showings on the pitch. Quite the presence, isn’t he?
