I would say released but it wasn't quite like that as when he found out he wouldn't be getting a new deal he asked to leave straight away, which kind of summed up his attitude over his time at Saints.
At the start of last season after being dropped for a few games he asked for a transfer! Needless to say no one wanted him, but at first he didn't even bother playing in reserve games to try and force himself back into the team. When he could be bothered he was alright, but was a bit indisciplined and inconsistent and it was no surprise he hardly played last season.
Crilly is the third ex Saint to drop down to the second division in the last week or so, joining Ellis and recent Partick signing Ricky Gillies.
