It would be lovely to think the majority of St Mirren fans will see your points of view, demand the bid is rejected, and press on with the fan takeover and the long haul. But they won't.

 

You only have to look at the disgraceful way Danny Lennon was treated by far too many of them even with the smell of fresh trophy polish still lingering in the Paisley air. For all their bluster, your average football fan is a fickle friend that will happily sup with any devil giving a semi-plausible plan promising a golden tomorrow and lording it over everyone else.

 

For St Mirren fans - forever taunted by the Alex Ferguson era and what might have been - the prospect of finally matching their potential instead of being the club everyone loves to poach starlets from at bargain prices will be too great; especially after so many seasons in a wilderness that there appears no way out from any time soon as all the clubs above and just below them get stronger. Even Morton.

 

Of course, this could be the opening of a whole new chapter in the history of St Mirren. However I fear the chapter in question could well prove to be the opening one of "A Tale Of Two Cities".

Good signing. Centre halves coming out our ears though....

He was called up for Scotland in 2011 but never capped, has a lot of experience in English League 1 and the Championship.
