A St Mirren player's house was ransacked by three thieves hours before the team played a Scottish Cup game.

Kyle McAllister's Renfew home was "trashed" and robbed by three thugs, according to the star's girlfriend. 

She took to Twitter to post CCTV footage of the robbery, which took place mere hours before the Paisley side's game against Aberdeen on Saturday night. 

The group reportedly "trashed" McAllister's home, which he shares with his partner, Eilidh and stole shoes before fleeing the scene. 

She has asked anyone with information on the three boys or the incident to come forward.

"If anyone has seen these boys or has any info on them in the Renfrew area please give myself or @kylemcallister0 a message."
