DAVID Barron is frustrated the campaign is drawing to a close – because his is just getting started.
The St Mirren full-back has made only nine appearances this season after suffering a medial ligament problem in September.
Barron initially thought the injury would keep him out for a fortnight, but he was sidelined for 10 weeks.
Having battled back to fitness, he has finally reclaimed a spot in the first team, starting the last three games – the 21-year-old’s longest run in the side this term.
Barron has already set his sights on making a major impression next season.
“I’m disappointed the season is coming to an end as I’m just starting to get a decent run in the team,” he said.
“The injury put me out for so long and then I had to do more work to get myself fully fit.
St Mirren moved to within touching distance of safety following their 2-0 win over Falkirk.
With Saints requiring just a point in their final game against Hamilton to stay in the top-flight, Barron is determined they won’t slip up.
The defender said: “It’s in our hands now and that’s important going into the final game.
“We’re not thinking we are safe by any means yet. We have to concentrate on our own game and hopefully get at least the point we need.
“But we’ll be trying to win as we can move above Hamilton and that would be a good way to finish.
