Livingston boss hails Scottish football's response to Zander Murray becoming first openly gay player

Livingston boss David Martindale has hailed Scottish football’s response to Zander Murray becoming the first player to publicly come out as gay while playing in the men’s senior game.

The 30-year-old striker is currently in his fourth season at Lowland League side Gala Fairydean Rovers but had previously spent his playing career in West Lothian with Broxburn Athletic and Pumpherston.

Current Livi first team coach Neil Hastings was a team-mate at Pumphy and was Murray’s manager for a spell at Gala while assistant manager Marvin Bartley is part of the Scottish FA’s Equality and Diversity Board.
