Daramola now has an incredible 65 goals for Athletic this season, setting him up nicely for a permanent switch to Kelty Hearts this summer having been loaned back to Athletic from Kelty for the rest of the season in January after joining John Potter’s side on a three-and-a-half-year deal in January.
“It is a phenomenal goals total by Tiwi this season,” Athletic secretary Derek Oliver told the Falkirk Herald. “We’ve still got eight league games to go and we’re still in two cups.
"A lot of people will say Tiwi is scoring these goals in the lowest league, but at any level it’s great.

"He deserves it, he’ll go to Kelty with our best wishes and hopefully he can finish just as well when he plays higher up the pyramid.
