HSS Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 must be about this date, in 200? the cooncil granted the permission to turn Love St in to a supermarket....sparking the move to Greenhill Road and our future financial security. And also the recent League Cup win. It is all in my diary but cant quite remember which year. I used to have perfect memory for these things....fading a bit noo! Going to do the same job on the farm today I was doing when I kept nipping in here to see what was happening. I do recall realising how hugely significant a day it was for St Mirren. Where would we be if they had said NO? 24th May 2005 was the day the planning application was passed FJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HSS Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 1993.....Jamie Fullerton earned his 2nd U21 Cap in a 1-0 victory over Bulgaria at the Toulon Tournament. http://www.fitbastats.com/scotlandu21/game.php?gameid=76 I think Barry Lavety may have been a sub in this game but can't find confirmation.

Interesting bit is the 2 names you mention. Jamie Fullerton was our first bosman...ie walking away for personal gain and no money to the club. Barry said he would never do that and we got a transfer fee from Hibs (£50,000?).......Jamie was pish and disappeared ....Barry was great and came back to win the league under Sir Tom Hendrie .
