Nice wee piece on Clarkson. 

Think both we and he himself know he's finished as a player at the club but it's good to see we've kept him in gainful employment through his injury and are utilising him in a few other capacities, giving him the opportunity to progress his career with one eye on his path after his playing days are up.

Everything said there is how I feel about it all.

He's not good enough to play for us anymore.

No great surprise but DC is in the paper today saying that he's been told he won't be offered another playing contract by St Mirren. Rehab and the odd bit of scouting will continue in the short term but he's hoping that he can get a new club in the next few weeks.

The club and manager have both treated DC well. Our reputation in supporting players when injured will help us in signing future players, in my opinion. Best of luck to David.

Do clubs not medical insurance  to cover players injuries.

So would you not of supported a player with such a serious injury? Club did right by him by giving him the scouting gig and supporting his rehab (both of which wouldn’t of been a great financial burden in the grand scheme of things and scouting would be beneficial to us) and now are giving him a chance to continue his football career. There was no way he was ever coming back as a player for us, he’d of been away if he hadn’t gotten injured. I think what the club has done should be applauded.

You mean we should do the same as when we totally abandoned Darren McGregor after he had two serious injuries while at Saints.......

If you are so incensed at the signings of Hilson and Duffy as well as looking after a player who was seriously injured playing for Saints then maybe you should write (spellcheck is your friend)

to Jack Ross and Tony Fitzpatrick for their explanations instead of bitching on here.

I trust the Club with their decisions, after all ,we are not doing so bad are we ???
