Jamie McCart is fully focused on the future. A new club, a new league, a new direction for his career.
He’s excited about what lies ahead for him and Rotherham United in the English Championship. But for any player who played for St Johnstone in season 2020/21, it’s almost impossible not to look back as well. To reflect on the most incredible year in the club’s history. To reminisce about two glory days at Hampden. To wonder how the hell they managed to do what they did – and if it will EVER be done again.
And who can blame them? Just 16 months have passed since Saints lifted the Scottish Cup, their second major trophy in one truly unimaginable campaign. Their League Cup triumph was incredible. But to do the double? That made manager Callum Davidson and his players immortal in Perth and beyond. McCart is now settling into life in Yorkshire, having left McDiarmid Park in the summer.
