Let us turn our attention to St Mirren - the notable Scottish outfit hailing from Paisley. This venerable team has been plying their trade in football since the year of 1877 and their fortress known as The SMISA Stadium provides the backdrop to their competitive fixtures.
Famed as the Saints, St Mirren's worth in terms of player market value is around a modest £7m (as per Transfermarkt). With a squad of 31 lads possessing an average age of 25, there's a fine balance of youthful energy and seasoned experience adding to the overall quality.
Competitive spirit is something the Saints have never lacked. This season, their ambitions have taken them across four competitions. First and not least, they have secured the 8th spot in the Premiership. Following suit, they fought their way into the second round of the League Cup and made their presence known in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup. Not resting there, they took their chances - albeit thwarted - in the 3rd Qualifying Round of the Conference League Qualifiers.
Although the glory days of the Old Firm categorically exist before the 2013 cutoff, the Saints are known to hold their ground against substantial competition. It has been, to put it prosaically, a whatsoever fascinating journey that resonates with the twists and turns of Scottish football for St Mirren.
