Scott Gallacher has vowed to do all he can to help Airdrieonians climb up the SPFL League One table. 

​

The on-loan Rangers keeper will remain at New Broomfield until the end of the year and played for the Diamonds in the win over Stranraer and defeat to Dunfermline Athletic.

​

Gallacher, 24, kept four clean sheets in six games for his parent club before manager Ally McCoist selected summer signing Cammy Bell between the sticks.

​

Playing regular first-team football is Gallacher's aim for the campaign and he's determined to impress in his spell with Airdrie, who travel to rock-bottom East Fife on Saturday.

​

"I need to be playing games from a personal point of view," he said. "And my focus is on doing well and trying my best at this club.

​

"I was pleased with how I started the season. I started six games and kept four clean sheets which was a big boost to my confidence.

​

"There is a certain standard to be reached at Rangers but I'll be looking to keep my standards high no matter what club I'm playing for.

​

"Playing regular first-team football is my priority, especially this season. I will do whatever I can to help Airdrie while I'm here."

​

The Diamonds go to Methil looking for their first away win of the season and intent on closing the five-point gap to the promotion play-off zone.

​

But the Fifers' need for points is just as pressing. Willie Aitchison's men have lost five of their opening six league games and are a point adrift at the bottom of the standings.

​

Airdrie boss Jimmy Boyle will assess the fitness of defender Chris O'Neil and striker Jim Lister before naming his team.

​

Liam Coogans, the club's 16-year-old striker, scored his first goal of the season in the 2-1 reverse at Dunfermline and is likely to again feature in the matchday squad.
