Tommy Wright has spoken to the press for the first time since becoming Saints boss, with his quotes in The Scotsman this morning also confirming that defender Frazer Wright is set to sign a new one-year deal. Wright, who will be officially paraded at McDiarmid Park next week after he has returned from a summer holiday, said: “I’m delighted and honoured that the club wanted me to become manager. It’s good that they have noticed the work done by myself and the coaching staff alongside Steve in the last 18 months. “Steve asked if I was interested in going to Millwall, but I wanted to stay here. I didn’t want to leave St Johnstone because I’m happy at the club. I hadn’t thought too much about becoming a manager again because I was enjoying my job as Steve’s number two, but when the opportunity came up and the chairman spoke to me about it, I was delighted the club wanted me to stay on. “I’m sure there were good candidates out there, but I can’t wait to get working now with Callum and Alec Cleland and the rest of the staff.” Read more from Tommy Wright: scotsman/sport/football/top-football-stories/tommy-wright-named-as-new-st-johnstone-manager-1-2961107
