St Mirren Football Club can confirm that we have reached a mutual agreement to terminate the contract of Rocco Quinn.

The midfielder joined the Buddies in January 2016 after leaving Ladbrokes Premiership side Ross County.  

He went on to make 32 appearances for the Saints - scoring one goal in a 2-2 draw with Hibernian in April 2016. 

The club would like to wish Rocco all the best for his future career. 

Jack Ross admits he is delighted to have Harry Davis back at St Mirren. 

The manager was speaking to stmirren.com yesterday after the defender signed a permanent deal with the club following a successful loan spell last season. 

Davis would only make nine appearances in his brief stint with the side, but impressed with his quality in defence along with his goal-scoring threat. 

The gaffer confessed that he wasn't sure he was going to be able to bring the 25 year-old back, but is happy that the hard work to get him in has paid off. 

We're really pleased," the manager said.

"He's someone I remained in contact with and was always keen to try to get him back to the club.

"I thought it was going to be unlikely that we got him back. However, we've worked really hard at it.

"What was in our favour was how much he enjoyed his time here - not just at the club, but I think he and his family enjoyed living here.

"So I'm really pleased he is on board and looking forward to him getting back to full fitness." 

Davis' season ended in March last season when he picked up a knee injury in a 3-2 win over Dundee United at the Paisley 2021 Stadium. 

And while he's still not fully fit the manager said it was a move they have carefully considered. 

I think there is an element of risk with every signing whether they are fit or injured," he said. "I understand there will be supporters who will question the wisdom of that.

"We balance that up by saying a player of his calibre will be fit in say a month or so and the season is over a ten month period.

"For me it was a weighing up of all the circumstances and saying that is worth it for us. He's edging closer to full fitness. He'll be back soon and once he is back he'll be a big player for us. 

"I don't think under normal circumstances we would have had a chance of getting him.

"He has a good pedigree in terms of the number of games he's played in England.

"Even when we managed to get him in January there was interest from Scottish Premiership clubs and we sold it that he would have his chance to put himself in the window for them. I know from the people I speak to in the Premiership that he probably would have had that opportunity had he not picked up the injury.

"There are circumstances that allowed us the opportunity to get him to play in the Championship so you have to balance that up. We've made a balanced decision on it." 

Harry Davis says he is on cloud nine as his return to St Mirren was made official this morning. 

The 25 year-old had a successful, albeit brief, loan spell with the club last season before his season was ended early due to injury. 

It was a spell that the defender thoroughly enjoyed as he knocked back interest from other Scottish and English clubs to sign on permanently with the Saints. 

Speaking to stmirren.com, the ex-Crewe Alexandra admitted the Buddies felt like the right fit for him: "Yeah I'm delighted to be back.

It's been ongoing throughout the summer. I've kept in contact with a lot of people at the club and I'm delighted to get signed. 

"I can't speak highly enough about the club and everyone here to be honest with you. Everyone from the gaffer, Tony [Fitzpatrick], the fans and the club in general.

"I've just got a great feeling about it and it just feels right."

Davis only made nine appearances during his loan spell, but impressed with his composure in defence and his goal-scoring threat. 

In those nine matches he scored against Celtic in the Scottish Cup and netted the opener in a 3-2 win over Dundee United at the Paisley 2021 Stadium along with a goal against Dumbarton on his debut.

I absolutely loved it," he confessed.

"The gaffer and the whole club made me feel welcome as soon as I walked in the door and you remember stuff like that.

"I really enjoyed my time here and I'm certain I can enjoy another spell here as well."

While the defender is still a bit away from being match fit after the injury he picked up in March, he says he is making good progress as he looks to return to the first team as soon as he can. 

I'm feeling good," he said. "I'm unrestricted now in terms of what I can do so hopefully I can just start loading it and pushing on and hopefully I'm not too far away.

"I want to get back as soon as possible obviously, but it's one of those things I can't rush and I've got to make sure it's 100% right before I come back in. I'm hoping it comes sooner rather than later. 

"I think the aim has to be to take the form from last season into this season and I don't see any reason why we can't do that with the squad that is here."

St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Harry Davis.

The defender has put pen to paper to sign a one-year deal with the option of a further year. 

The 25 year-old Englishman initially joined the Buddies on loan in January and quickly became a fans favourite as he scored three goals in nine appearances before injury cut his spell short. 

Gavin Reilly says it was good to end the Betfred Cup with an emphatic victory as St Mirren overcame Airdrieonians 5-0 on Saturday. 

The striker notched two goals in Saints' five goal win over the Lanarkshire side as the Buddies gear up for this weekend's Ladbrokes Championship opening day. 

And he confessed it was important for the side to make amends for the defeat to Partick Thistle a week earlier.

After last week it was good to get back to winning ways, and to win convincingly," he said.

"It was good to get the Partick game out of our system and build up for the Falkirk game next Saturday.

"There was two ways to look at this game. Everyone could have looked at it as a nothing game but you go into every game wanting to get something out of it.

"I personally wanted to get some goals. And because of that I was delighted to get the win because last Saturday was very frustrating because we let a lot of people down.

"We let ourselves down, the fans down so to come back and win in the manner we did was brilliant to do."

Reilly's double against Airdrieonians took him to three goals in four starts for the Buddies.

The summer signing admits, as a striker, it was imperative to get off to a goalscoring start in his time at the Saints.

It was very important for me to score early on, especially scoring against Stranraer. 

"I scored a couple of goals in pre-season but when the first competitive game start you are always wanting to get off that mark to take the pressure off. 

"But as long as I'm contributing and setting up goals then that's brilliant."

With the Betfred Cup campaign over for Saints, the 24 year-old is now looking forward to this weekend's curtain-raiser against Falkirk. 

These are the games you want to play in," he said.

"It is the first game of the season and there will be a big crowd here with a great atmosphere."

Jack Ross was delighted as St Mirren ended their Betfred Cup campaign with a 5-0 win over Airdrieonians at the Paisley 2021 Stadium.

An own goals was added to by a double from Gavin Reilly and strikes from Lewis Morgan and Cammy Smith as the Saints ran out emphatic winners. 

It was a morale boosting win ahead of next weekend's Ladbrokes Championship opening day fixture with Falkirk. 

Speaking to the press after the match, the manager said: "We have had a bit of an up and down pre-season through various things so today was about getting back to winning ways regardless of the scoreline.

"I thought we played really well and it was nice to see us keep a clean sheet and the forward going players get on the score sheet, so it's been a good day for us.

"It's not easy to respond to the disappointment of last week because of the result and the manner of the performance. We took criticism last week and deservedly so. The players took it from me as well so to respond in that manner was terrific and it shows our character.

"We've still got a good bit to go until we get to the levels we think we can be at to challenge this season, but today was good for us. 

"It's been a peculiar league cup section for us because we started it really well with a really good result away to Stranraer and we've finished it with a really good result. The Livingston game was okay - we just couldn't score - and the Partick game was horrible for us.

"It has been up and down for us but ultimately it is about us trying to be in the best possible frame of mind for next week and we've helped ourselves with that result and performance today. 

"We've had an awful lot of injuries," he continued. "Not just to senior players but ironically enough to some of the U20s who probably would have featured today.

"It's been challenging in that regard. It's not an excuse for last week for example but you meet those challenges. We've still got a bit to go but today was encouraging.

"Next week will have a different feel around it. These games still have a little bit of a pre-season feel to it, whereas next week the crowd that will be in here, the atmosphere and intensity will properly be at competitive football."
