TOP FLIGHT AT END OF THE TUNNEL

Liam's savouring Premiership life after doubts in the lower leagues

- BY DARREN JOHNSTONE

LIAM HENDERSON is relishing every minute of Falkirk's Premiership campaign after doubting he was good enough to make the grade.

After being released at Hearts and the Bairns earlier in his career, the defender has had to fight his way back up the ladder.

That started with a spell at Edinburgh City before moving on to Arbroath.

And during his time in the part-time ranks he wondered whether he would ever fulfil his dream of returning to the full-time ranks. Henderson, who is hoping Falkirk can build on their draw with Rangers when they travel to Motherwell today, said: "It's been brilliant.

"I've been on a bit of a rollercoaster in my career.

"But to be at the top level and playing against these teams and with the boys that you've come up the leagues with has been amazing and I can't be happier.

"Obviously I would like to win more games of football.
