McCaffrey signed by St Johnstone

Couldn't see a thread on this else where, feel free to close if there is.

Caff has signed a 2 year deal with St Johnstone.

It's a shame things didn't work out for him in the SPL with us, he was very very patient with Dods being the preferred starter.

Good luck to him.

Caff never really got back into regular contention after the red card at Killie which saw Dods take his place in the team back in Oct 2004.  Not sure if that resulted in him losing his edge through lack of games or if he was never going to sustain any kind of form in the SPL, but there's no doubting he played a huge part in getting ICT there in the first place.

His pre-contract with St Johnstone meant we already knew he wasn't coming back, and I wish him all the best.  The 1st Div is a tough league and I think St Johnstone have only finished outside the top 3 once since they got relegated there in 2002.

When you look at some of the teams in the 1st now and some of the squads they are putting together it makes you realise more than ever how important it is to avoid relegation!!!  Looks like it could be a right close fight there next season and as much as I hark back to days before the SPL and the crap it brings with it, I'm glad we're not having to do battle there....lol.

Thats a good move for him.

Didnt realise his injury kept him out for so long, good luck to him with that and well done to St Johnstone for taking him on despite of it.

Again, the very best of luck to him, I'm sure all of us can recognise his long term contribution to getting us promoted.

Good luck Caff, and hopefully we'll see St Johnstone up in the SPL, where they should have been this season.

Not at Inverness's expense, of course.... :010:
