shull Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Get next Season's strip out and for sale in time for the Morton match on the 21st April. Have the Stadium a sea of stripes as the Title Trophy is lifted. Got to be proper and traditional black and white stripes. This Season was just a 6/10. An all red change strip would be preferable.

shull Posted May 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Maybe the new Kit will be displayed at the Normandy Dinner coming. I have absolutely no qualms that the Strip will be a cracker. Going by The Tunnel and other changes around the Stadium , the present Board have supreme taste in all things, St Mirren. They won't let us down.

You've said it all - so far as 8,000 capacity shoe box stadiums go. I suppose it meets the needs of an average Scottish Championship level (or lower) club. For your information, there are 20 clubs in Scotland with a ground capacity greater than the Paisley 2021 Stadium, albeit some might not be in such good condition as ours. We could have hoped for slightly better for a club with the potential (and tradition) of St Mirren. For example - 4 stands similar to Falkirk with a total capacity of at least 12,000.

But you surprisingly seem to be endorsing the club's strategy of planning for failure, rather than success - at least so far as the decision on the replacement for Love Street was concerned.

shull Posted May 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 We got the basic Stadium that could be afforded at the time. The present Board are doing their very best to give it its own St Mirren personality. That Tunnel job on its own is outstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the "ugly sister" others very rarely fill their grounds and most have crowds that are lost in the mass empty seats. Yep it would have made economical sense at the time to build a 25k all seater state of the art stadium. If we can fill in a couple of the corners that will do, even then we'll have multiple empty seats at most games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would just make us look like a smaller version of Killie. Having a stadium only 1/3 full doesn't look as good as a smaller stadium looking 1/2 to 3/4 full. Long term it would mean higher maintainance costs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Celtic and Sevco are dead and buried and every Club in the Top League has a chance of winning the Title then it may be feasible to increase capacity. Having Renfrewshire all to ourselves would be advantageous also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pondsman Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Returning to the title of the thread, if anyone has any influence on this (though it's probably already too late for next season), can we please have traditional broad black and white stripes on the home strip and please, please, please, NOT that checked red and white disaster that we had this season for the away strip. It really hurt my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whydowebother Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Will be avoiding buying kits for the kids & top for myself due to the awful treatment received earlier this season just gone.Tried several times to contact club shop direct no answer. Emailed, no reply.Phoned club main reception, they put me through & when the person did answer, they were borderline rude, not helpful at all ( wouldn’t answer my questions & clearly wanted just to get off the phone like my call was an inconvenience ) & even after that, the online store wasn’t updated for months, making only kit available for ages 2-3 for months.Refused after poor treatment to bother giving them my cash.We only got to 9 games at home this season, but my kids like wearing the Saints stuff around here & on holiday They now have Scotland & Leeds United kits.

Deekthebuddie Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Will there actually be a new home shirt released, or will it retained but have a Scottish premiership patch stuck on the arm, and from the prices on the e-store it looks like the days are numbered for the 'tea towel' away shirt (Thank God) Anyone got any suggestions as to what they would like new shirts to be like, or what to avoid?
