Annand was on trial with Saints last summer, scoring against Gretna. He broke his foot in the game, but was signed anyway. He didn't play many games after his recovery, and promptly broke the same foot! When he returned he missed some sitters, and has continued doing so this season. In Wednesday's reserve game he missed far too many easy opportunities.
This transfer should now allow Saints to sign an extra player before Tuesday's transfer deadline. Annand has signed a 1 year deal with Dumbarton, and will link up with former Saint Robert Dunn.
