EXTRA TIME

Full history of the St Mirren kit, from 1877 until today

A detailed history of the evolution of the club badge.

Abercorn F.C. were from the East of Paisley and for the first 20 years of football in the town were the biggest club. Like Saints, they were founder members of the Scottish league, but would be defunct within a few decades of this promising beginning. What happened to them?

In the early days of football in the town, as well as Saints and Abercorn, Paisley had several football clubs including Dykebar FC. Read about them here.

The greatest XI as voted for on twitter in 2019 after over 5000 votes. Who makes the cut?

In 2001 with Saints fighting relegation from the SPL, a South American agent who was originally from Paisley contacted manager Tom Hendrie and told him Ronaldinho was open to moving to Saints. This is what happened.

The performance of every Saints manager compared against each other. Some will surprise you…..

The 2020 version of The Natural Order

If you gave points at the end of each season based on performance to every club that took part in Scottish Football, where would Saints find themselves? (Original 2018 version)
