FS Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Okie dokie, It's time to get the ball rolling here and get some contributors lined up to be filmed. If you want to be in the film and have some stories to tell or perhaps some video/film footage, memorablia, photos, programmes or other filmable items, then get in touch. There's a my space page with the promo HERE And it's looking good for local press coverage in the coming weeks. All ideas and suggestions welcome... That is all...

Callum Gilhooley Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 The 2000 promo video is brilliant, however my overiding memory of that season was getting thumped 5 - 0 on the last day of the season up at Inversneckie and the saints fans singing " we want six !"

JM1 Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 How easy is it to get the rights to show highlights from old games? As I started going regularly in the 90s, I'd love to see the games all the oldies go on about... We could have a suggestion list on here of what brilliant games at Love Street to include, or summat...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Logan video you produced was cracking so I’m sure this will be a superb DVD when it comes out. Bet you have sound tracks to a T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 St. Mirren 3 Clydebank 1 - 1977 St. Mirren 3 Rangers 3 - 1977 St. Mirren 4 DUFC 1 - 1977 St. Mirren 6 Hearts 2 - 1985 St. Mirren 2 Celtic 3 - Midweek SC Cup game late 70s. Yes we lost but this game brilliant. 5 goals. 2 broken legs and 3000 locked ootside. All of the above are absolute musts and were definitely all televised.

Eddy Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Okie dokie, It's time to get the ball rolling here and get some contributors lined up to be filmed. If you want to be in the film and have some stories to tell or perhaps some video/film footage, memorablia, photos, programmes or other My grandad used to tell us a story about St Mirren trying to sign this player from Rothesay (at least I think it was Rothesay). The manager, or chariman or whatever apparently went over to Rothesay to convince the guy to sign. It had been hyped up in the local press and there was a big turnout at Gilmour Street as supporters gathered from all over the town to see this guy. So they're all there waiting for the train to pull in and when it does it turns out the chairman had changed his mind...and bought a horse instead. Bit of a let down. Now - I have no idea if any of this is even remotely true - I have never heard anyone else even mention it - and given that gramps was a bit of a story teller and known to have fits of extreme exaggeration I'd appreciate it if anyone who has ever heard anything even remotely connected would mention it here. I think it would have been in the 1950's if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I was at this game and seem to recall Iain Munro scoring a screamer for us. ......and Danny McGrain breaking Frank MacDougall's leg with a terrible, terrible tackle. Zico got into trouble with the SFA for having the temerity to have a go at McGrain in the press afterwards. Laughable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSS Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 He also stated that a wad of you got chucked oot Gilmour Street for not having any permission to film or something like that, is this correct Got chucked out of Gilmour St for taking pics at St James'. I'll have a look through my St Mirren box and see what I can come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
