The news comes from the Daily Record. It says that Basher is currently using the gym in the sports centre to get himself fit, and is being helped by former Saints physio Jim Denny.
Lavety said:" If I want a club in Scotland then I have to keep myself fit and Jim is working me very hard indeed. I wouldn't rule out a move to St Mirren and, though things didn't end well the last time, that's all water under the bridge now."
Meanwhile, chances of Lavety signing for Saints look more than hopeful going by what a source said: "Barry was a big favourite up here and we've had reports from Jim Denny that he is looking very good indeed in training."
If Basher is fit we should sign him, of that there is no question. There are even rumours he has already signed, along with Kevin McGowne and Stevie Woods.
