Stephen Robinson is adamant some things are bigger than football after revealing St Mirren defender Scott Tanser was involved in a bad car crash.
The Buddies full-back will be unavailable for tomorrow’s trip to the capital to face Hibs after being involved in an accident on Wednesday night.
While Tanser was unhurt, his wife was injured and Robinson insists the incident “puts football into perspective” while wishing Tanser’s family the best as they recover.
Robinson told PA Sport: "Unfortunately, Scott Tanser was involved in a car crash the night before last.
"He, luckily enough, is OK but won't be available for Saturday, unfortunately his wife is not as good and we wish her a speedy recovery as well.
"Scott is happy everyone is OK but he won't be involved in the game on Saturday.
"It puts football into perspective, doesn't it?
"His kids weren't in the car but his wife has been injured and hopefully she will have a quick recovery and everyone is okay.
"Our focus is making sure him and his family are OK, first and foremost, and hopefully maybe getting him back in next week but at the moment he needs to make sure family are OK."
