Saints Aid 6 - Managers Pull Out

Image 
 
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

SMiSA Player of the Year Event - Venue Change!

ImageAs you may have heard already on the SMiSA Forum, this Saturday's Player of the Year event has been moved from Fury Murrays to Suburbia on Shuttle St, Paisley with the start time remaining at 4pm.  All tickets sold for Furys will be honoured at the new venue.

The change of venue was forced as a result of the travel clubs who had committed to attending the event (Cockles Wilson, Jolly Buddies & Chivas) all had plans to allow U18s in their membership to attend the event, something which Furys could not do under the terms of their license.

We can confirm however, that tickets are still available and will be on sale at the door for those who do not already have them.

With Saints now secured in the SPL for next season, it will surely be a great event so please come along!

SMiSA are pleased to announce that the Paisley Daily Express' competition for the Away #3  jersey in Saints Aid 6 has been won by Scott Greig from Castle Gardens, Paisley.

Scott was one of the many who of course answered correctly that Gus MacPherson's assistant manager was Andy Millen, and will therefore take his place in the team next Sunday.

All of us at SMiSA hope you enjoy the game buddie!

SMiSA Player of the Year Night, and Award Winner

ImageSMiSA are happy to announce that the vote to determine their player of the year has now closed, and it has seen Hugh Murray come out with the award.  Shuggie has been a tremendous servant to the club over his 10 year spell at Love St, without question deserving of his testimonial year and this season he has been undoubtedly one of the standouts in the St Mirren team.

SMiSA would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who voted over the last fortnight and can also now formally annouce that they are organising their Player of the Year event where Hugh will be presented with his prize.

It will be held at Fury Murrays in Shuttle Street on Saturday 19th May at 4.00pm, after the ICT game at Love Street which kicks off at 12:30pm.

All Saints travel clubs and websites are welcome to present their awards at the event if they wish.  To organise that please just send us an email.

Tickets will cost £2.00 and will be available from this Saturday (May 5th) onwards, with further details to be announced.
