We’re pleased to confirm the loan signing of St Mirren youngster Ethan Sutherland. The 17 year old shone in the Buddies pre-season fixtures terrorising from the left flank and was awarded his first senior appearances against Montrose and Arbroath in the Viaplay Cup group stage. The youth prospect will continue his development with the Wasps for the remainder of the season starting with Saturday’s game against Annan.

We’re delighted to have Ethan in to help the group. With the departure of Josh Debayo and a bad injury to Euan Deveney we felt we had to strengthen the squad options on that left side and Ethan will provide that.
