Wright admits Swanson transfer ‘too good to miss’

Bingham 69 be and he’ll play. I probably said I wouldn’t take him back but he is a quality player and some players are just suited for certain types of clubs and managers.

“Danny is somebody I trust and who I think will give us another edge and another bit of quality that we already have at the top of the pitch.”

Saints were 2-0 in front before half-time on Saturday thanks to goals by Blair Alston and David Mcmillan.

Accies gave themselves hope when Rakish Bingham drilled a low shot beyond Zander Clark but they failed to salvage anything from the game and manager Martin Canning warned his players that their starting place is now under threat. “That’s the challenge, you’ve got to be at it and your standards are continually high,” said Canning, who made four signings on deadline day. “We can be excellent one week then poor the next.

“Now, if that happens, you probably don’t play. You’re going to bring someone else in that’s going to be more consistent.”
