Steeped in the rich tapestry of Scottish football history, St Mirren was birthed in the year 1877. Today, the team calls The SMISA Stadium its headquarters, from where it carries out its footballing exploits.
The worth of the St Mirren squad isn't heightened by ostentatious glamour, rather by the subtle, grounded ethic of hard work that permeates through its cadre. The approximate combined market value stands at a respectable £7m according to Transfermarkt. 27 players strong, the squad harbours an average age skirting 26 - a stir of vitality and maturity.
This season, the squad's participation hasn't been confined to a single frontier. To the contrary, St Mirren have been seen to wrestle with the tides in three contests. Their position in the Premiership has them precariously placed at 10th. They have also reached the Final of the League Cup in compelling style. Though their journey within the confines of the Scottish Cup terminated at the Semi-Finals, their march to that stage was nothing short of laudable.
