A consortium that wanted to bring in former Coventry City midfielder David Thompson has withdrawn its interest in St Mirren.
The consortium - Aspiration Holdings Ltd, had planned to bring in Thompson as manager but has withdrawn citing a lack of communication with the Scottish club.
An Aspiration statement reads: "Recent accusations both verbally and in the press regarding this takeover were purely designed to detract from the deal being completed successfully, in our opinion, as both parties were fully aware months ago of Mr Mohammed's history.
