Gus McPherson joined Glasgow Rangers straight from school and spent four seasons at Ibrox. However in the big spending era at the club he never managed a first team start and, after a spell on loan at Exeter City during 1990 he left Ibrox for Kilmarnock in February 1991. Highlight of his time at Killie, was playing in the winning Scottish Cup team in 1997.
He joined Dunfermline in 2001 before
signing up as St.Mirren player/Assistant Manager during the 2003 close season.
He made his competitive debut against
Queens Park on the 2nd August 2003 in a league challenge cup match.
He was handed the dual role of assisting
John Coughlin with team affairs and also to add some strength and consistency
to the Saints defence.
When Coughlin stepped down from the
managers role in November 2003 Gus took over as caretaker and his three
matches produced two wins and a draw with much improved performances. This
prompted the board to appoint him in a permanent capacity in December 2003.
