Milne verdict boosts Bairns

Falkirk defender Kenny Milne has been given the all-clear after suffering a nasty head injury in the 1-1 draw with Aberdeen at the weekend.

Milne collided with a pitchside wall at Pittodrie right on the stroke of half-time and was taken to hospital for a check-up before being allowed to travel home with the rest of the Bairns squad.

Bairns managing director, George Craig, told the club's official website: "Thankfully, Kenny was allowed out of hospital to travel back in the team bus with us after doctors confirmed he had suffered a whiplash injury.

"They were satisfied enough with the player's condition to allow him to go home with the team."

Assistant manager Brian Rice had earlier said: "He banged his head on the wall and we didn't really know what the problem was at the time.

"When you get a head-knock then people have to be very careful with what they are doing and I think that's just what it was (when they put on a head collar)."
