MacPherson told The Official St. Mirren Website: "There is no truth whatsoever in it, in fact it is absolutely ridiculous." MacPherson is believed to be furious that these rumours have appeared, seeing Broadfoot as a vital component of Saints championship challenge.
The chances are that had a bid of £100,000 been made for Kirk it would have been rejected. Broadfoot is our best player, has a two year deal and is part of the Scotland under 21 squad. With Dundee's Mark Fotheringham apparently leaving for £100k earlier this week, Saints would have been after a lot more, especially with Celtic throwing money around all over the place.
Broadfoot has featured in every issue of Mirren Mad's Rumour Mill, with sugestions that Rangers and a few English clubs want him. Let's hope this is as close as he comes to leaving Saints over the next few years.
