A post by a member of The Official Site webteam on the forum last night said that Saints boss John Coughlin has not even approached Annand, let alone offered him a two year deal. Coughlin also said that, whilst he has enquired about former Saints striker Stephen McPhee, he will not be signing him as he is outwith our wage range. The same applies to former trialist Omar Riza, availible on a free transfer.
Another supposed Saints target, Dirk Lehmann, is attracting more interest. Falkirk have joined the race for his signature, as have irish side Linfield.
