Mr Zo Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Brilliant news! Well done SMISA and everyone involved in this, which is around 1021 fellow buddies and counting. SMISA has been around a long time now and done some great things for our club but has taken a lot stick from many posters on this forum and beyond from towel gate and so on. SMISA had about 80 something members only a couple of years ago but they plugged away and helped make this historic day possible. Hopefully positivity will ripple through the corridors of St Mirren Park and throughout the stadium for many years to come. Off to Majorca in the morning but when I return I will make my bid for vice chairman along with another 1021 people. ;-) Well done everybudddie! Very proud to be a buddie tonight. (as always) :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Dickson Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Congratulations and well done to all concerned. I really do hope the new owners of the club can use their drive and enthusiasm to be innovative, creative and to see through a long term vision that really will push the club forward on and off the park. Good luck for the hard work ahead, and well done for your efforts to date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddiecat Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 (edited) I want to thank everyone for doing their bit, everyone on the facebook pages BuyTheBuds, Buy the Buddies, SMiSA, St. Mirren Supporters,International saint mirren supporters also Blackandwhitearmy web page, You have all been wonderful and without you this would never have happened. I would also say that anyone who has not signed up still can at any time from now and forever if they want to, we need all the support we can get to help the fortunes of our great club. I would also like to thank Saporito Coffee of Gauze street Paisley (a great place for a coffee or tea and a bite to eat) for providing meeting facilities, also the Bull inn New street Paisley and the Bankhouse Gilmour street Paisley ( great places for a beer or two and a meal) for providing meeting facilities, all provided facilities without cost i might add. From the bottom of my heart I thank you all. And look forward to our journey together. Special mention for Div who has been a great help to SMiSA in this bid.

Balmullo Bud Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Amazing news and the start of an exciting new era. Hopefully now that we know it's a reality more Buds will join and the club will steadily grow and evolve. COYS!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontariosaint Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Just want to add my 2 cents worth (multiplied to equal 12 pounds) in thanking all of the people involved in making it happen. I'm sure you had to deal with doubters, answer the same questions over and over and keep plugging ahead with NO financial budget to get your message out there. I'm sure its been hard work, late hours and hope you take the time to smell the roses your favourite beverage as you raise a glass. Thanks, I'm so excited and proud to have been a Saints Supporter all these years! Did I say thanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treaclebreeks Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Fantastic. What a historic day for our club. Did you notice that? OUR club! Okay, not quite ours just yet, but it is now as good as. Massive credit to everyone who has worked so hard to make this happen. Take a bow folks. I doff my cap to each and every one of you. I'm also immensely proud of everyone who has signed up. This is a big commitment, and it demonstrates just how important the club is to so many people. A wee open day to invite everyone along to the stadium for a group hug is in order (no tongues, though, and definitely no 69s!). As one of the mugs that chipped in my dosh, why should I be excluded from the group hug?Yours etc A 69 year old. Ps I endorse the Drew. Massive aknowledgement of the smisa effort. TrueBuddies.

RickMcD Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Yes, 69 isn't a bad age to be especially when I remember some good guys, unfortunately no longer with us, who would have been 69 this year too. And I confess that, like Drew, I felt a bit emotional when I realised we had got the magic number we needed. A great all round effort from good Buddies. PS. The number 69 reminds me of something else. Something nice, but buggered if I can remember exactly what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMcD Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Has it been that long? I refuse to answer on the grounds that my wife has a totally uncanny instinct for twigging when I say anything inappropriate about horizontal olympics. And one of my sons reads everything on here. And I don't like to boast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
