Tiernan Lynch's Managerial Deal with St Johnstone Falls Through

Tiernan Lynch's anticipated move from Larne to St Johnstone has fallen through after he could not come to terms on a personal agreement with the Scottish club. Initially seen as the frontrunner to replace Craig Levein, Lynch had a compensation deal agreed upon between the two clubs, indicating significant interest from St Johnstone. Despite the setback, Lynch has been recognized for his successful tenure at Larne, where he led the team to consecutive titles. St Johnstone's search for a new manager continues, with interim manager Andy Kirk facing challenges after a heavy defeat to Celtic. The club aims to appoint a new leader soon as they prepare for upcoming matches, including a Europa Conference League campaign. The recruitment process has seen a wide net cast, but Lynch was consistently the preferred choice of the club's American owners.
