| Craig Samson (St. Mirren) information | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| A much travelled goalkeeper despite only being 26, he was brought in to provide back-up and competition to Paul Gallacher following the departures of Chris Smith and Mark Howard in the summer of 2010. Prone to the odd howler, he can include the likes of Kilmarnock, Ross County, Ayr United, Dundee United and Hereford on his CV. Has also played for Scotland under-21s, although ran into problems when - following the long established traditions of our national side - he broke a curfew. |
