Scott Bain, a Scotsman born on 22 November 1991 (age 34), currently plies his trade as a goalkeeper for Falkirk. Standing at 1.83m (6ft) and weighing a solid 70kg (11st), Bain dons the number 19 jersey for his club. He has also represented his country, Scotland, at the international level.

Setting his stamp in the football world, Bain's current market value hovers around £85k, according to Transfermarkt.

Bain's transition into the professional realm began in August 2010 when he moved from Aberdeen in Scotland's Premiership to League Two side Elgin City on loan. During his debut season with Elgin, Bain affirmed his growing reputation by making 11 first team league appearances.

In July 2011, Bain switched allegiance once again — this time from Aberdeen to Alloa Athletic in the League One. Over three seasons, Bain made consistent appearances for Alloa Athletic, featuring in 100 league matches in total.

Bain then made the leap to Dundee in the Premiership in July 2014. Over the space of four seasons, the shot-stopper made 107 first-team appearances in the league.

Bain's journey then saw him move to Hibernian on loan in January 2018, a short stint which paved the way for a major turning point in his career — a loan move to Celtic in the same month.

At Celtic, Bain eventually became a trusted figure between the sticks. In his initial loan spell in the season 2017 - 2018, he made seven first team appearances in league matches. This promising start led to a permanent move from Dundee in July 2018.

Over the course of six seasons at Celtic, Bain continued to be a reliable presence in goal, making 53 first-team league appearances in total. Following an eventful time at Celtic, Bain embarked on a new adventure, transferring to Falkirk in the Premiership in July 2025.

Now at Falkirk in the current 2025 - 2026 season, Bain has remarkably already made 30 first-team league appearances. Demonstrating his versatility, the keeper has also started three matches in the League Cup and an equal number in the Scottish Cup for Falkirk. His commitment to the game remains as steadfast as ever.
