The uncapped centre-half, 28, has been outstanding for the Steelmen since joining from Livingston in the summer.

As well as showing off his undoubted ability in winning aerial duels, Gallagher has demonstrated his passing ability, leadership qualities and is a threat in the opposition box from setpiece deliveries.
