Falkirk Football Club has announced that goalkeeper Nicky Hogarth has signed a two-year contract extension, keeping him at the club until June 2028.
Hogarth, who joined Falkirk from Nottingham Forest’s youth team in 2023, made 44 appearances last season and has played four times this season. His performance has garnered praise from management, with John McGlynn stating, “He’s shown everyone that he is more than capable of playing in the Premiership.”
In addition to Hogarth’s contract news, Falkirk is preparing to host St Mirren on March 21, 2026, in the William Hill Premiership. Tickets for the match are priced at £25 for adults, £19 for concessions, £13 for under 18s, and £5 for under 12s.
Meanwhile, concerns are growing for local resident Thomas Wild, who was last seen on March 7, 2026.
Inspector Simon Kinyua reported that “Thomas was last in contact with his family on Sunday, March 8, and they are becoming increasingly concerned for his well-being.” Personal items and clothing belonging to Wild have been discovered on a beach in Dalgety Bay.
Police are actively conducting searches in the Dalgety Bay area and are also making enquiries in Falkirk and Grangemouth as part of their investigation.
As the community rallies around the search efforts, the situation remains tense, with many hoping for a positive outcome. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the circumstances surrounding Wild’s disappearance.
Hogarth’s contract extension reflects his importance to the team, especially following the club’s success in winning the Scottish Championship title last season. His local ties and commitment to Falkirk were highlighted in his own words: “Being from the area and knowing what this club means to the supporters makes it really special to represent Falkirk.”
As Falkirk prepares for its upcoming match and continues to support the search for Thomas Wild, both stories underline the deep connections within the community.
