Scott Bain, born on 22 November 1991 and native of Scotland, currently assumes the position of goalkeeper for Falkirk. Standout features include his stature of 6 foot (1.83 metres) and an athletic weight of 11 stone (70 kilogrammes). He asserts his presence on the field in the number 19 jersey and has also amassed recognition on an international level, playing for the Scotland national team.

While not a record-shattering figure, his current market value still holds steady at an estimated £130K. Such estimates stem from credible sources like Transfermarkt.

Before joining Falkirk, Bain's career path saw him weaving through several Scottish clubs. His journey commenced with a loan transfer from Premiership club Aberdeen to League Two club Elgin City in August 2010. This opportunity allowed him to make his debut and he had 11 first team league match appearances in the 2010-2011 season.

By July 2011, Bain was on the move again, this time transferring to Alloa Athletic in League One. His career maintained an upward trajectory with him making a significant number of appearances in each season from 2011-2013.

The year 2014 heralded his transfer from Alloa Athletic to Premiership side Dundee. Bain consistently featured in the club's first team and saw plenty of action from 2014- 2017, making at least 22 appearances per season. In the 2017-2018 season, however, his presence on the pitch dwindled to a mere 12 games.

This professional hiccup led to a loan transfer to Hibernian and subsequently to Celtic, both in January 2018. His stay at Celtic, despite beginning as a loan, became permanent later that year.

Bain's stint at Celtic was marked by sporadic appearances on the field, varying from a mere single appearance to as many as 20 in a given season. However, his time with the club, from 2017 through to 2024, witnessed Bain making important contributions and showing his worth when called upon.

His journey took him to Falkirk in July 2025. In the ongoing 2025-2026 season, Bain has already made 12 first team appearances in league matches, demonstrating his tenacity and determination. He has also participated in the League Cup, starting in three matches for Falkirk.
