Darren joins the club as Assistant Manager, bringing with him a wealth of experience both as a player and within the game locally. A former player with Stirling Albion and Sauchie Juniors, Darren is widely recognised as Sauchie’s all-time leading goalscorer and has built a strong reputation through his knowledge, professionalism and winning mentality.

“Firstly I would like to thank everyone at this club for this opportunity. It’s a great club with great ambition. I’m looking forward to working alongside the players, staff and supporters to help move the club forward. I’ll give everything I can to support the manager, team and the club as a whole. Most importantly, I’m excited to get started, work hard and hopefully be part of bringing success to the club.”

I’ve already seen the passion and support around the team, and I’m looking forward to working with the players and staff throughout the season. Hopefully together we can give the supporters plenty to enjoy. Thank you for the warm welcome, I can’t wait to get started.”

Having worked previously with Fraser, I know the standards and ambition he brings, and it was an easy decision to come on board. There’s a real buzz around the club and I’m looking forward to working with the goalkeepers, staff and players to help drive things forward. I can’t wait to get started and be part of what we’re building here.”

There is a real excitement building ahead of the new season and we look forward to seeing the team get to work.”

Everyone at St Andrews United would like to warmly welcome Darren, Callum and Greig to the club and wish them every success in their new roles.
NEW MANAGER - FRASER DUNCAN
St Andrews United FC Appoint Fraser Duncan as First Team Manager
On behalf of everyone at St Andrews United Football Club, I am absolutely delighted to welcome Fraser Duncan as our new First Team Manager following the departure of Greg Shields and his management team of Stuart Milne and Stevie Clark.
Firstly, I would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Greg, Stuart and Stevie for all their hard work, commitment and professionalism during their time at the club. They leave with our very best wishes for the future and with our gratitude for the foundations they helped put in place.
Following a thorough process, it became very clear that Fraser was the outstanding candidate to lead St Andrews United into this next chapter. His passion, ambition and knowledge of the game immediately stood out, along with his clear vision for how he wants his teams to play and represent the football club.
Fraser brings with him a tremendous amount of experience within Scottish football, both as a player and manager. His career has included spells with Ipswich Town, Livingston, Stirling Albion and East Fife, as well as representing Scotland at youth international level. Most notably, his achievements during a long and successful spell as manager of Sauchie Juniors speak for themselves, where he built highly competitive teams, achieved multiple promotions and cup successes, while helping establish strong foundations throughout the club.
What impressed us most throughout discussions was Fraser’s hunger to return to football management and his belief in what St Andrews United can become. He understands the importance of this football club to the town and community and shares our ambition to continue building something the supporters can be proud of both on and off the park.
Speaking following his appointment, Fraser Duncan had the following message for the club supporters:
“It is a huge honour and privilege to stand here today as the new manager of St Andrews United Football Club. This is a club with passionate supporters and a real sense of community, and I’m incredibly excited to begin this journey together.
“The right time and the right club for me to get back involved in football. St Andrews really does tick all the boxes. The town is incredible and deserves a successful football team.
“My aim is simple: to build a team the fans can be proud of, a team that fights for one another, competes every week and represents this club with professionalism and pride.”
This is an exciting time for St Andrews United. The club continues to move forward in many areas, and we believe Fraser is the right person to help drive that progress on the football side. We know supporters will quickly see the passion, professionalism and commitment he will bring to the role.
Fraser is already working hard behind the scenes on preparations for the new season and we are all looking forward to supporting him as he begins this new journey with the club.
I am sure everyone connected with St Andrews United will join me in giving Fraser a very warm welcome and we wish him every success in the role.

MANAGEMENT TEAM TO DEPART
St Andrews United Football Club can confirm that manager Greg Shields will step down from his position at the end of the season, with Stuart Milne and Stevie Clark also departing their roles within the backroom team.
In his statement (see below), Greg reflected on his time at the club, describing it as “a privilege to work with such a dedicated group of players, staff and supporters,” and acknowledging that “this was not an easy decision but I believe it is the right moment for both me and the club to move in a new direction.” The club fully respects his decision and thanks him for the professionalism and integrity he has shown throughout his tenure.
Greg leaves the club with our sincere gratitude for his hard work, commitment, and leadership. His time in charge will be remembered for a number of notable achievements, none more so than this past week’s historic accomplishment in leading the Saints to our first-ever Fife Cup victory against Dunfermline Athletic, a landmark success for the club.
We also echo Greg’s own recognition of his backroom staff, whom he credited for their “hard work, loyalty and professionalism” and as being “a huge part of everything we’ve achieved.” Stuart Milne and Stevie Clark have made a significant contribution during their time at the club, and we thank them both for their dedication and service. Greg also expressed his appreciation to everyone connected with St Andrews United for their “trust, commitment and passion” during his time at the club. Those sentiments are warmly reciprocated by all at St Andrews Utd.
On behalf of the players, staff, supporters, and committee, we extend our sincere thanks to Greg, Stuart, and Stevie for their efforts and achievements. As Greg noted, the memories created during this period will endure, and they leave with our very best wishes for the future.
