St Mirren Football Club can confirm that Gus MacPherson has re-joined the club as our new Technical Director.
Gus first joined Saints in 2003 as player/assistant manager before taking over as manager later that year following John Coughlin’s departure.
Gus was in charge of The Buddies for over six years – leading Saints to promotion in 2006.
St Mirren chairman Gordon Scott said: "Over the past few months we have learned lessons regarding the structure we have in place and decided that we want to have someone within the football department who will be a constant presence going forward.
"The board have a vision of how they want the club to develop. At present we have a plan but not the man power to define and execute it.
"Gus is someone I worked with closely when I was on the board previously and he has the experience and knowledge we are looking for in the newly created role.
"Gus, in his role of technical director, will support both Tony Fitzpatrick and Oran Kearney in whatever manner they require for the club to progress and evolve."
