Darvel matchwinner Jordan Kirkpatrick has been dining out on his newfound fame following his team’s stunning cup win. The midfielder has been treated to free food and drink after dumping big boys Aberdeen out of the Scottish Cup.
But the humble plumber is eager not to try and take all the credit for the win. He said the scalp was thanks to the great performance of his teammates and that he crashed back to reality when he returned to work after the victory.
The 30-year-old, who was on the phone to his boss while his fellow players partied in the dressing room, thanked his work colleagues for covering for him on days and nights when he has training or games.
