A brave footballer who counts West Lothian sides Broxburn Athletic and Pumpherston amongst his former clubs has become the first player in Scotland's men's senior leagues to publicly come out as gay.
Zander Murray, who currently plays for Gala Fairydean Rovers in the Lowland League, has opened up about his sexuality and has praised his team-mates and staff at the club for their support.
The 30-year-old, who moved from Pumphy to Gala four years ago, admitted he battled against his true self for years and is hopeful his message will inspire other players across the country to be themselves.
