Alistair Johnstone has paid his respect to David Wotherspoon after his 10 year St Johnstone career was ended today.
In their long and proud history if you were to spend a decade in Perth it would tie in with Wotherspoon who leaves St Johnstone with two Scottish Cup and one League Cup winners medals.
A serious knee injury suffered in the League Cup Final defeat to Celtic in November 2021 had an ominous feel about it but the midfielder battled back to earn a place in Canada’s World Cup squad, coming off the bench to play 15 minutes of the group match against eventual semi-finalists Morocco.
Great player, even better guy ?? @Spoony_10 https://t.co/oKf9Q7sFx0

With his Celtic transfer almost rubber stamped Johnston would have been quizzing his international team-mate about what to expect from life in the SPFL.
Whatever was said few players have made an impact on Celtic as quickly as Johnston who’ll be looking to add to his own medal collection on Saturday when the hoops take on Inverness Caley Thistle at Hampden in the final of the Scottish Cup.
I Hope the future is good for David Wotherspoon.
An excellent player a a good sport and decent lad.
Three medals with the Saints, the second most successful club in the last decade.
Saints fans will be proud of him.
