Chris Aitken had an emerging coaching talent and an old ally by his side at East Kilbride - with a Rangers icon helping balance out his perfect backroom crew.
The former Morton player is currently out of the game for the first time in 25 years following his shock departure as boss from the Lowland League club last month.
With him in his coaching circle during his stint at K-Park - which lasted less than a year - were ex-Ton teammate David MacGregor, u20s head coach Martin Fellowes and Rangers icon Durrant.
