Gordon Marshall joins as goalkeeping coach

We are delighted to confirm the appointment of Gordon Marshall as first-team goalkeeping coach. 

Gordon (60) was most recently working with Hamilton Academical and has a wealth of experience in Scottish football.

As well as a previous spell with us here at McDiarmid Park under Derek McInnes, Gordon has also coached at Hibernian, Alloa Athletic, Motherwell, Aberdeen and Queen of the South.

Gordon enjoyed a successful playing career and started out as a youngster at Rangers and then turned out for East Fife and Falkirk.

He would move on to make more than 100 appearances for Celtic before taking his place between the posts for Kilmarnock and then Motherwell.

Gordon starts with immediate effect and was out on the training pitch on Monday. Everyone at St Johnstone would like to welcome Gordon to the club.

“I’m delighted to be back at McDiarmid Park and I’d like to thank everyone for the warm welcome,” Gordon said. “I’m looking forward to getting to work with a group of young, talented goalkeepers.”
