The Rams legend is on the backroom team at EK and believes they have what it takes to end their stay in the Lowland League
Craig Bryson admits he can relate to East Kilbride’s struggles to reach the SPFL, having spent eight seasons at Derby County without play-off success.
In his playing days, Bryson produced some of the best football of his career at Derby, but it wasn’t enough for the Rams to make the charge from Championship side to the riches of the English Premier League, as they suffered numerous play-off heartaches. He said: “I think the hardest part for East Kilbride – and I found this at Derby when I was there, when we were one of the favourites to be promoted every year – you become a target, so it becomes even harder to win promotion.
East Kilbride are the only unbeaten side left in the Lowland League this season and Bryson, who started out at Westwood Rovers and also featured for East Kilbride Thistle early in his career, admits he would love to see his local side on the SPFL map, especially as a part of the staff to get them there.
