goalkeeper Mark is back for a second spell at the club this
season after having returned to Leithen Rovers for a season
in the Border Amateur League. A fantastic shot-stopper with
lightning-quick reflexes, 'Wils' has been a great servant
to the club in his time at Victoria Park. Injury problems
at the start of the season 2009-11 saw Darren Walker installed
as first choice keeper. But Mark showed a tremendous attitude
in battling back to fitness and patiently working hard in
training until when his chance came - albeit due to a unfortunate
injury suffered by Walker - Mark showed he had not only lost
none of his attributes between the posts, but improved other
aspects of his play and was the first winner of the newly-introduced
Manager's Player of the Year at the end of 2009-10. Now competing
with Chris Hill for the number one shirt this season. |
