We’re delighted to announce the addition of Scott Agnew to our coaching staff as our new Player/Coach.

Scott’s playing career saw him turn out for Hamilton Academical, Alloa Athletic, Ayr United, Stranraer and St. Mirren before joining East Fife in the summer of 2018 where he had a successful first stint as a player, scoring 25 goals in 96 appearances over 3 seasons at the club.

After leaving East Fife following the 2020/21 season, he took up the position of Assistant Manager to Iain Murray at Airdrieonians before following him to Raith Rovers when he was appointed as their Manager in May 2022.

Manager Greig McDonald: “I’m delighted to add Scott to my coaching staff and to the playing squad. We’ve been speaking for a while, and he shares my vision for the team. He has a great knowledge of the lower leagues and obviously knows our club well. Scott will bring experience and leadership to the team and I’m looking forward to working with him, Paul and Lindsay for the rest of the season”.

Scott Agnew: “Greig was very clear on how much he wanted me back at the club and the role he thinks I can play. I’ve enjoyed building that relationship with him and hearing about the ambition he has for the group. The opportunity to continue my coaching career while also helping the team on the pitch was too good to turn down. I have a special affiliation with the club from my 3 years here as a player and can’t wait to get started.”

Scott will join the rest of the coaching staff and players at training this week ahead of Saturday’s match against Elgin City.
