Cookie Monster Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 He had a Saints Supporters Club named in his honour. He did, though it was another (Better) one that sponsored him. [emoji16] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKnight scored some crucial goals in the run in for the championship, still vividly remember his goal at Ayr Utd, what a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the template for Paul Scholes , the finished article. He could break up play in his own half and still arrive late in the opponents box to get on the end of a cross or cut back , and he had a wee nasty streak too !

It's a shame he didn't bypass Airdrie after Aberdeen, think both him and Saints would have benefited more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
