Name: Jim
Cumming (millport)
Role: Financial
Controller
Age: 39
I
have been a St.Mirren for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories were
sitting with my Dad in the Main Stand watching the planes take-off over the Caledonia Street end. This was
pre-Fergie time and I think the quality of the fare on offer at the time was
not the best.
Anyway
Fergie arrived and ever since I have been on a footballing rollercoaster, which
of course is what supporting the Saints is all about. I was lucky to be at
the Anglo Scottish Cup Final, the Scottish Cup Final of '87 and the Liverpool
Centenary game at Love Street. My only European venture
(if you don't count the Isle of Man) was to Mechelen for the
Cup Winners Cup game. I just hope that one day that we can savour
European football again as there are so many Saints fans out there that have
never had the opportunity.
Prior
to being asked to join SMiSA as Treasurer in 2002, I was co-editor of the
St.Mirren fanzine Saints Quarterly. SQ was great because it brought me into
contact with a lot of Saints fans who I had never met before. Similarly
and probably even more SMiSA has introduced me to a great wealth and depth of
people who have St Mirren in their hearts and give up so much of their
valuable spare time to help St Mirren the football club
progress.
