Testimonials
PETER LAWWELL, CHIEF EXECUTIVE, CELTIC FC
"As businesses steeped in football, Celtic FC and News UK operate in a hotbed in Glasgow; in my opinion there is no hotter city in this respect than Glasgow.
"This makes a relationship between the club’s Chief Executive and the Head of Sport in the biggest-selling newspaper an extremely challenging one at times.
"Throughout the seven years in his post at The Scottish Sun, though, Iain and I maintained a solid working relationship based on mutual respect and an understanding of the difficulties we both faced.
"Iain was always passionate about The Scottish Sun and News UK as businesses and I watched him grow in maturity, gathering vital knowledge and fostering links in the paper’s advertising and commercial partnerships with us.”
DONALD PARK, SCOTTISH FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION
“I have known Iain for many years through his work as a sports journalist, but first got to know him in a football coaching sense when he came on to the UEFA B licence course in 2013.
"Throughout his time at the National Sports Centre I can only speak very positively about how he applied himself to the course, where he helped out his fellow coaches whether it was during their sessions or in sharing his knowledge and joining in debates. Iain would be a very good addition to any club because of his knowledge, obvious love of the game and his burning desire to become a top coach.”
