Former Hearts and Raith Rovers manager McGlynn has been linked with the vacant jobs at St Johnstone and Tynecastle.

Parkhead hero Finn Yeats reckons fans will have the handcuffs out to keep John McGlynn at the Falkirk Stadium. The Bairns boss has shot on to the list of candidates for the vacant St Johnstone manager’s gig – and has also been talked up for a return to Hearts.

John McGlynn is flattered to be linked with the St Johnstone managerial vacancy but insisted he is happy where he is and intent on returning to the Scottish Premiership with Falkirk. The 62-year-old was installed as one of the early favourites to replace Craig Levein, who was sacked by the top-flight strugglers earlier this week.
