Brechin boss expecting better news on Callum Tapping

The knee injury Brechin midfielder Callum Tapping suffered against Stirling Albion last month does not look to be as first feared.

Nevertheless, manager Ray McKinnon is sending him for a scan just to check.

The 21-year-old had established himself in the Glebe Park starting XI following his summer move and there were fears that he faced several months out.

McKinnon reckons that may just now be weeks.

He said: “Callum’s injury has improved quite a bit and that has been great news.

“He is booked in for a scan and we will still get that carried out but it could well be that he is only missing for another four weeks and not two or three months and hopefully the scan will confirm that.”
