At St Mirren Football Club we have a long tradition of rearing our own players from the youth level to a full blown professional. Even though the Club has still maintained this tradition there is no argument that the numbers involved has dropped off as over the last couple of decades the game in general has gone in a different direction.

SMiSA - the St Mirren Independent Supporters' Association - have stepped forward to form a partnership with the Club that is hoped will kick-start the conveyor belt of talent that we witnessed in days gone bye.

SMiSA are seeking new contact details for two of its members - Michael Connolly and Kenny Cunningham, prior to a post-out being sent to the membership on an number of issues.

If anyone knows Michael and/or Kenny, or could assist in providing new details for either gentleman, could they please send the trust an email to assist us reaching them.  Thank you.

SMiSA is pleased to announce that David Barron has won the vote to earn the trust's award for St. Mirren Player of the Year 2009/2010.  David will be presented with the award on the pitch prior to Saturday's final home game of the season versus Aberdeen on May 8th.

From everyone at SMiSA we would like to congratulate David on his award and thank him for a tremendous season's effort, as well as thanking everyone who took the time to nominate their choice for the award.

SMiSA are now accepting nominations for their St. Mirren Player of the Year award of the 2009/2010 season.  

Nominations can be made by anyone with an email address, whether they are SMiSA members or not.  Nominations should be sent here, clearly stating both your name and the name of the player that you wish to nominate.

We will accept nominations received up until 8pm on the closing date of Tuesday, May 4th, when the vote will close and the winner announced a short time after.

Please only send one nomination per email address, multiple nominations from the same address WILL NOT be counted.
