But also you deserve a lot of credit for supporting a proper football club such as St. Mirren and not a big club with millions of plastic fans.
Cheers! Yeh weve never in our history won the league cup (we formed in 1887) and the last time we won the scottish cup was 1987, when i was 4! Winning it this year was a huge achievement, considering the teams we beat along the way, including celtic! We are getting alot better on and off the park though, managing to stay in the top flight for 8 years and moving into a new stadium a few years ago (capacity is just under 9000, to give some insight to how small we actually are lol). Our history is massive though, we played and won a tournament set up to open the nou camp (barcelona cup) and we also SACKED sir alex ferguson lol!
