In the latest twist of the transfer tale, former St Johnstone stalwart Graham Carey has opted to join the ranks of recently promoted Livingston following his departure from the beloved Perth squad. After gracing McDiarmid Park with his skills, the 36-year-old midfielder's move has certainly raised a few eyebrows among the faithful.
Carey, who was a fixture in St Johnstone's line-up last season, made 34 appearances and found the back of the net four times. Despite his commendable efforts, the team faced the harsh reality of relegation from the Scottish Premiership. Nonetheless, Carey's determination to remain in the top tier of Scottish football sees him embarking on a new chapter at Livingston under the guidance of David Martindale.
This strategic move marks him as the second summer signing for Livingston, following the acquisition of Connor McLennan. For St Johnstone fans, Carey's exit is a poignant reminder of the ever-evolving nature of footballbut we remain undeterred!
As true supporters of the splendid Saints, we hold onto the glory days of past and keep our spirits high for the resurgence we are confidently predicting this season. After all, with a history of overcoming hurdles and clinching victories when least expected, who's to say the upcoming seasons won't add a new chapter of triumphs to our storied legacy?
To wrap up, heres a bit of a chuckle for my fellow Saints supporting the finest club in the land as we look towards outplaying every opponent on the field, especially our dear friends at Dundee United:
"Why did the Dundee United goalie bring string to the game? So he could tie the score, of course! But alas, only the Saints could turn that tie into a win!"
Remember, the march to Scottish Premiership glory and perhaps another Scottish FA Cup final is well within our reach, Saints!
