BobbyLavatory Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 No shop next year? Or someone else running it? Sorry to see Provans go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Sad news for St Mirren fans. No doubt about it. Whatever plan the owners/new owners have to replace AWP is an argument for another day... If they have a plan that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
div Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Very sad news. The shop has been a million times better since Alan and his team took it over again. When I was last in at Xmas the staff couldn't have been more helpful and the place was packed to the rafters with gear. Just adds to the current overwhelming feeling of bad news that seems to be surrounding the place at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) Really grim development on the merchandise front. I appreciate that Alan has already explained why the situation wasn't sustainable from his perspective, but it would have been good to feel even remotely confident that the club have something up their sleeves in terms of taking things forward. Once again, the silence is cacophonous when it comes to the club giving the supporters any indication as to what is going on. FFS, you would think that they could see their way to throwing us the odd bone from time to time. Woeful stuff. Anyway, thanks to Alan and his staff for doing the business once again. I have a few wee bits and pieces that I had better look after carefully as God only knows when they could be replaced.

RickMcD Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Sorry to hear it. My daughter got me bits and pieces for Christmas and my birthday and she did it over the phone. The staff were apparently great and there was no problem getting the stuff posted over here to us in Northern Ireland. Hope we get some kind of replacement but it's the kind of thing that St.Mirren would always seem to have on the back-burner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Aye, better take care of my polo shirts, coffee mugs, t-shirts, jackets, air fresheners, key rings.... The club crested Titelist golf balls are more problematic - I keep hooking the wee buggers out of bounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im no rocket scientist but i have noticed over the years that the best ball to play with is Top-flight. Usually when i use titleist, callaway nd maxfli's hat i am always reaching into my bag for newblls. When i finish a round and say to myself, here, i haven lost a ball today it usually occurs when i se Top-flights. A friendly tip. Try and see fr yorself.

When I walk off the course cursing after yet another disappointing score, it has hee-haw to do with me using Titelist, Top Flite, Callaway or Nike balls... It has everything to do with me being a useless ginger cnut with rocks between his ears, who once more swung the clubs like a lunatic at 200mph, trying to take the paint off the ball and batter it into the middle of next week, instead of swinging even-paced and easy. Fact. Pssst. My favourite balls are Srixon yellow ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FS Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 When we had the Piazza shop, sold Saints lottery tickets from those wee booths and had 'The Saint' newspaper? Right, so how many wee booths do we need and what can we stock in them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TediousTom Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I popped in pre-match before my spirit was well and truly broken. I purchased a key ring for myself (I know I am so kind to myself) for the very reasonable price of £2. Anyway it is both a St Mirren crested key ring and a bottle opener...amazing. It is just like when someone finally put wheels on the suitcase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm off jetting around the world I love that I can watch some other poor person effortlessly pull my heavy suitcase to and from my destination makes my heart burst with pride.

Deekthebuddie Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Its a sad day right enough and doubt Provan will be connected with us again- we binned them once and there wee shop in the town centre(which was there for God knows how long) which always had good stock, shut down. If we manage to hang on and stay up- not having a club shop is laughable,if we go down, not having one will mean no additional income(even if very small) to help us try to get back up again. And on top of this, what do we get from the BOD- Their usual- SILENCE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
