Another New Face arrives at Station Park

Gary Irvine is delighted that the club can confirm this morning the signing of 26-year-old midfield player Craig Thomson who was released by Airdrie earlier in the week.

Craig becomes Gary’s fourth confirmed signing within the last 24 hours.

A Fifer, Craig joined St. Johnstone as a schoolboy, signing his first professional contract at the age of 16.

He was never able to quite establish himself as a first-team regular at McDiarmid Park but did make just under 30 appearances for the Saints in competitive fixtures.

During his time in the Fair City, he also had spells on loan at Elgin City and Stranraer.

He moved on to East Fife in 2108 and after a short spell up at Brechin, spent the last two campaigns at the Penny Cars Stadium.

As was the case with the trio of new singings announced yesterday, Craig has penned a two year deal with the Athies.
