Is he the greatest player in modern Falkirk history? In a word, yes! The Trinidadian superstar returns to meet the fans!

Dobbie Hall

Few many footballers make such a mark on a club that they have a day specially designated to them, but Russell Latapy has achieved exactly that. Brought to the club in 2003 by then-manager John "Yogi" Hughes, Russell had already had a stellar career, winning back-to-back league titles and Champions League football with Bobby Robson's FC Porto, the Portuguese Cup with Boavista, become a cult hero with Hibernian and enjoyed spells with Rangers and Dundee United. At face value he was entering the twilight of his career, but on joining the Bairns he enjoyed an Indian summer, playing football with a style that saw him earn the First Division player of the year in 2005 as Falkirk stormed back into the top flight of Scottish football. He continued to impress in the Premier Division, earning player of the month accolades and helping cement the Club's place in the top division.With thanks to our friends at Falkirk Daft Podcast, Russell will be returning to Scotland in June 2023 and will be meeting the fans at Dobbie Hall, Larbert on Thursday 22 June, for an evening that no Falkirk fan will want to miss!There are three levels of ticketing available:H﻿all of Fame Package - £125 <ul><li>Early entry to the venue</li><li>Access to the VIP room with complimentary welcome drink</li><li>Enjoy a hot fork buffet in the company of Russell and some current and past Falkirk stars</li><li>Meet &amp; greet with Russell including professional photo </li><li>A﻿ print, signed and personalised by Russell</li><li>A﻿ Falkirk 2006 style retro shirt, signed and personalised to you on the night</li></ul>Bairns VIP Package - £45<ul><li>Early entry and access to the VIP room</li><li>Meet &amp; greet with Russell including professional photo</li><li>A﻿ signed print of Russell</li></ul>Standard Tickets - £25<ul><li>Great seats in the gallery section of the auditorium</li><li>Full night of entertainment</li><li>Opportunity to win terrific Falkirk and Russell themed prizes in our raffle and auction</li><li>Cash bar throughout </li></ul>PLEASE NOTE: Food and Drink will be available to purchase on the night.Under 18s are permitted, but must be accompanied by an adult; please see our full terms and conditions for further information.
