Saints Aid 6 - My Experience |
|
Monday, 28 May 2007 |
|
 By Holly "Hollz" McCormack...
I think it is an ambition of many, to play at the stadium of
all their dreams, their fantasies and desires. It is something that we may
aspire to do all our lives, but never make the grade. It may be on the ‘top
things to do before I die’ list that you wrote, one rainy Sunday. It’s a dream
that did become a reality, and one that I’m sure anyone who participated in,
would never forget.
I felt that the most interaction I would ever endure on the
pitch at Love Street was my
match day mascot stint in 1997. What a day that was, my 12th
birthday, warming up with my idols, actually being able to run and making no
mistake as I hit the ball to the left hand side of Alan Combe. I don’t think I
ever though that anything would live up to that moment, but I was wrong.

Saints Aid 6 - Event Takes Place! |
|
Monday, 28 May 2007 |
|
On Sunday, 20th May 2007, 2 teams of fans took to the field at Love St to participate in the 6th annual Saints Aid event.
The final score after 90 minutes of action ended up as 9-3 to the home side, though the away team comprehensively won the penalty shoot out held shortly after the match, which saw all the players in both teams take one at the Love St end of the ground.
Unfortunately with only days before the event was to take place, St Mirren's managerial duo, Gus MacPherson & Andy Millen had to pull out of the event. This was due to the club booking a holiday for the players after they secured their status in the SPL with the 3-2 win at Fir Park, which unfortunately clashed with the commitment for Saints Aid.
However all was not lost as on the day, ex-Saints Ricky Gillies & Steven McGarry stepped in to take charge of the home and away teams respectively.

SMiSA Player Of The Year Event |
|
Monday, 21 May 2007 |
|
On Saturday 19th May, following what was a
lacklustre end to the season with a final 1-0 loss at home to Inverness Caley
Thistle, and during an equally lacklustre FA Cup Final, Saints
fans packed out Suburbia in Shuttle St,
Paisley for SMiSA’s Player of the Year event.
The event was well attended by the players themselves as
well, including Kirk Broadfoot, Hugh Murray, David Van Zanten, Ian Maxwell, Kevin
McGowne, John Sutton, Billy Mehment and many others, as well as both of Saints’
dynamic managerial duo; Gus MacPherson & Andy Millen. |

Saints Aid 6 - Managers Pull Out |
|
Friday, 18 May 2007 |
|
Sadly, we have had some bad news as regards the Saints Aid 6 event this Sunday. SMiSA were contacted by the club yesterday and
informed that both Gus MacPherson and Andy Millen have, unfortunately had to
withdraw from Sundays Saints Aid event.
The reason given is the club by
way of rewarding the players for staying in the SPL have organised a holiday
abroad for the team and management and this clashes with the Saints Aid
event.
To say we are bitterly disappointed at this turn of events is an
understatement however we are endeavoring to find suitable replacement coaches
for the day and will keep you informed as we conclude this.
We considered
cancelling the event but have decided to proceed and try to fill the team
manager's positions.
If you have any immediate concerns about the above
please contact us.
Thank you
SMiSA |
