    I'd be interested to hear Kibble's pov. They've not offered much in the way of transparency

    "A lot of shite" is some way to describe 1300 of your fellow supporters who ensured the major shareholding of the club could be owned by the fans.
    A group who have spent hundreds of thousands of pounds over the last few years on discretionary spend projects that have benefited the club, the academy, the charitable foundation and the local community.

    Great stuff! I agree, The Northbank have improved the atmosphere. I love what the murals, too.

    A good enough effort from W6er though for a song.  Hats off to you, Sir, for having a go.

    How about a new song?
    This is one that Swansea City used to sing, which I think is class, and is easily adaptable...
     

    New Northbank Song.mp4    
    Paisley, oh Paisley, St Mirren Sang I
    I'll be standing on the Northbank until the day I die

    Some features from our history that I think are worth mentioning:
     
    We played Barcelona in 1922 - https://www.stmirren.com/all-news/4444-the-barcelona-cup-100-years-on
    We were the first club in the world to wear black and white stripes (as far as I can tell - ours pre-date Newcastle's, Notts County's and Juventus's)
    Plus, of course, there's our cup wins and the fact we hate the Old Firm & Morton
     
    Maybe some of our more talented members could compose some more lyrics to the tune? @div could even make it a competition.

    I don't like threads like this - all they do is cause animosity. If you cannot stand someone's posts, just put them on ignore and try to forget about them. This should be a virtual community of Buddies, backing our club during this exciting period in our history. Can we all not stop the petty squabbling and put aside personal grievances? Or at least limit them to a particular sub-forum?

    If Killie don't sell out their stand we should do what we did with Livi and open some additional seats for home fans
     
    Edit, I see John Needham tweeted that they're going to sell out the away stand, good effort

    Met her once in Paisley town centre before a game, right outside the banky, she held a St Mirren scarf for a photo  always seemed alright tbf
    Think she has allowed herself to be dragged into the "woke" debates a bit much in recent years 
    Should always reserve the right to say "I appreciate the question, but today we're talking about ferries/roads etc" rather than getting dragged into debates that only impact on a minority 
    Can't say that I'm overly upset, no closer to independence and some fresh ideas and a new perspective might be a good thing

    It's quite the take to label 1200 of your fellow fans as a "bunch of clowns"
    The same "bunch of clowns" who own the majority shareholding of the club, bought and paid for with their own hard earned.

    Covid testing was costing the Club nearly £2k per day. Hopefully that is a cost not to be repeated.

    We should be having a look at Simon Murray from Queens Park. 15 goals in 21, 7 assists also. Not sure if we can afford him but if we get some budget might be the solution we need
