Scott Bain, a native Scotsman born 22 November 1991, is currently serving as a goalkeeper for Falkirk Football Club. Standing at 6 feet tall (1.83m) and weighing in at 11 stone (70kg), Bain sports the number 19 jersey on the field. As of the moment, this shot-stopper's market value reaches an approximate £125,000, as documented by Transfermarkt. With regards to his current contract with Falkirk, it is set to come to a close on 31 May 2026, a mere 11 months away.
Prior to his career at Falkirk, Bain moved through a series of Scottish clubs. In August 2010, a young Bain moved on loan from Aberdeen in the Premiership to League Two's Elgin City, where he secured 11 first team appearances in his debut season. A year later, in July 2011, Bain transferred to Alloa Athletic, also in the Premiership. During his three-season tenure from 2011 to 2014, he was a key figure, appearing 35 times per season in league matches. In July 2014, Dundee - again in Scotland's Premiership - became Bain's next club.
At Dundee, Bain confidently held his ground as their first-choice goalkeeper from the 2014 to 2017 season, making between 22 and 37 appearances each season. However, his role significantly decreased in the 2017 - 2018 season, in which he only made a dozen appearances. A brief loan spell at the Premiership's Hibernian for a few months in early 2018 led him to his most prominent career move yet – a loan to Celtic.
It was with Celtic that Bain's career reached its zenith, with the club becoming his home from 2018 to 2025. Initially joining the club on loan in January 2018 before making the switch permanent in July the same year, Bain's time at Celtic was one of varying involvement. His most involved season was the 2018 - 2019 period, where he turned out 20 times for the first team in league matches. However, subsequent seasons saw a decreased role, with Bain making a sporadic number of appearances ranging from one to 18 in a season.
Regardless of the fluctuations in his playtime, Bain's time at Celtic was significant due to his length of stay and the club's historical status. His contributions, though varied, were part of a unique period in the club's history.
As of July 2025, Bain transferred from the mighty Celtic to play for Falkirk, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his career. His journey with the team is just getting started, as he's already been involved in the initial matches of the 2025 - 2026 League Cup.
