Scott Bain, born on the 22nd of November 1991 in Scotland, is a 6ft (1.83m) tall goalkeeper, weighing a respectable 11st (70kg). Currently sporting the number 19 jersey for Falkirk, he has hoisted high the standard of Scottish goalkeeping with impressive stints at various clubs and a dash of international flair.

Bain's market value is estimated to be around €100k, approximately £85k, according to Transfermarkt.

The seasoned custodian embarked on his professional journey from Aberdeen, landing a loan spell at Elgin City in League Two for the 2010 - 2011 season. After a commendable 11 first team appearances, Bain moved to Alloa Athletic in League One in July 2011. Alloa Athletic was a nurturing crucible for Bain, where he steeled himself with 100 first team appearances over three seasons.

July of 2014 saw Bain leaving Alloa Athletic and joining the ranks of Dundee in the Premiership, where he held the fort for four rather eventful seasons, making a total of 107 first team appearances. However, the turn of the year in 2018 took Bain on a composited journey to Hibernian and Celtic on loan from Dundee.

The loan stint with Celtic proved pivotal in Bain's career; it was there that he became a familiar figure on the Scottish Premiership landscape. His initial spell yielded seven first team appearances in just half a season. This promising start caught the eye of the Celtic hierarchy, and Bain transferred permanently from Dundee to Celtic in July of the same year.

Within the storied ground of Celtic Park, Bain proved his mettle time and again. Over the following seasons, he was integral to the side's campaigns, even if his game time somewhat oscillated. He racked up a further 44 first team appearances in league matches across six seasons – moments that were no doubt treasured by both Bain and the Celtic faithful.

After a memorable period with Celtic – where he clearly left his indelible mark, Bain transferred to Falkirk in the Premiership in July 2025. Currently in the 2025 - 2026 season, Bain asserts his evergreen calibre with 22 appearances for Falkirk. In the ongoing League Cup 2025 - 2026, Bain has already secured three starts, signalling his continued prominence in Scottish football.
