St Mirren have made two appointments in a bid to stem the Covid-19 infections that have prompted two postponements. Former St Mirren player and ex-Scottish Police Federation chairman Brian Docherty has been brought in as a safeguarding and quality manager. Risk management professional Kevin Pollock, a Buddies fan whose previous clients include the UK Cabinet Office, will review the club’s internal processes and implement any necessary improvements. Chief executive Tony Fitzpatrick said: “The postponement of our two games following positive tests amongst playing staff was disappointing. “We are committed to leaving no stone unturned and look forward to the contribution both Brian and Kevin will make.”
