Friends of a Falkirk teenager who died ten years ago will attempt the world's longest football match this weekend. 17 year-old Craig Gowans was killed when a pole he was carrying on a training ground touched power lines - just two weeks after he'd signed for the town's football club. In tribute, two teams will try to play over 105 hours in aid of the Sick Kids Friends Foundation. Forth News has been speaking to Craig's friend, Jonny Wallace.
