Worst St.Mirren strip ever. :ph34r:

And you know the thing is, I remember in the weeks building up to the cup final in '87, the talk was that we would have a new strip in time for the final and would wear it for the first time that day! :o

Thank f**k we never, the white strip looked so much better.

In the end, the only difference was that we unveiled the new sponsor (Clydeside) that day on the strip.

But does anyone know why we had black numbers in the final when all season we had worn red numbers? Bit off topic, I know!

i always wondered why we went from umbro & adidas ( top names imo) to pish like matchwinner, core and xara.

was it just to save a buck?

as i remember, the costs of the replicas actually went up after we moved to a 'lesser' brand.

i dont think weve had as good a shirt since the cup in 87.

apart from the black one of course :)

That one was made by Uhlsport. The two Ulhsport strips (the Arriva one the following season was also made by them) had superb badges on them, fully embroidered into the material not sewn on like the current one.

That was my favourite Saints top, broke my heart when it no longer fitted me :(

The black strip was a cracker, I worked on a rig with a burd called Mandy Shearer, her brother is Duncan Shearer, when Roy Aitken left us and went to Aberdeen Mandy asked me for the top, she wore it at Pittodrie and went into the players lounge with it on, semmingley her Brother was mortified, she's still never sent me it back the cow :angry::lol:

TL was wearing the black top last week at Spartans......amazingly it still fits him! :o

It was a touch of class that top though! Would love to see it make a comeback....even as a retro thing via Provan sports! :D
