The biggest news of the day was the appointment of Danny Lennon, as the new St Mirren manager for season 2010/11. After the departure of Gus MacPherson, there has been several names linked to the Buddies.
Danny Lennon may be untried at this level, but what he has is great credentials in coaching young talent, and with the investment the St Mirren board have made in their Ralston facility, many St Mirren supporters are of the opinion, that this is a very shrewd capture by Stuart Gilmour.
Lennon leaves Cowdenbeath having steered them to back to back promotions, and into the first division. I think that this is exciting times ahead at new St Mirren Park, and hopefully now Lennon can identify a few players to make the squad stronger, for the upcoming season.
Lennon will speak to the press tomorrow morning and will be unveiled officially as the new Buddies boss, and I am sure I will not be the only one in wishing him all the very best in the season ahead.
I would also like to mention that Queens started today, and I made the constant mistake of confusing Richard Gasquet and Andy Murray, they look very similar in my opinion, and this proved to be extremely confusing in their epic battle at the french open last week. Andy Murray will get his defence underway tomorrow, and will hopefully find the same form which saw him lift the title, this time last season.
Finally, congratulations to Elena Baltacha who won the Aegon trophy in Nottingham, overcoming American Gullickson 6-2 6-2, a fantastic start to her grass season, and hopefully Andy will always win his first tournament on grass.
