Saints were supposedly very close to signing Bonnes in January before the fact he was availible was made known. He was good friends with former Saints goalie Ludovic Roy, and would probably have done well. There have even been rumours in recent weeks that we were interested, but he wanted too much money, just like Dirk Lehmann did. Until today Bonnes had been at Celtic, although had never played in the first team.
Meanwhile, former Saints captain Jamie McGowan has signed for recently relegated Alloa Athletic.
