Stranraer boss Stephen Aitken has received a boost after his brother Chris returned to light training after more than a month out with an ankle injury.
The 34-year-old was injured in a game against Brechin and looks set for a comeback next month despite initial concerns that he was out for the season.
Manager Aitken said: “Chris’ injury was not as bad as first feared and he has now started some light training. We will step things up and hopefully he will be back in about four weeks, which is great news.”
