is the new station being called St Midden then?lol 'keep yer hair on am only kiddin'
[quote]Supporters hope to see St James turned into St Mirren before Christmas - in plenty time for the opening of the 8000-seater stadium.
The ground, part of a £15million deal with Tesco, is expected to be completed by November, with Saints moving in on January.
Contractor Barr Construction has put the stands in place and the pitch has been laid.
As part of the deal the club's old ground, St Mirren Park in Love Street, will be bulldozed and replaced by an 80,000sq ft superstore.[/quote]

I'm a Rangers fan (but then, who isn't!), I would be quite happy for the station to be named after the team. They do it in London with Arsenal tube station (and Chelsea, Fulham, West Ham, Tottenham etc..).

St James Park in Newcastle, now there's another team in black & white stripes !

PS There are at least four glaring omissions on the sports venues/transport facilities scene viz:- (Glasgow) IBROX (ie main line not subway), PARKHEAD (Forge/Stadium) and (in Edinburgh) MURRAYFIELD/TYNECAST
LE & Abbeyhill/
EASTER ROAD/MEADOWBANK! At least Edinburgh will soon have its trams to/near these venues!

[bold]Do we really give a toss what station goes to what stadium of a 2nd or is it 3rd division club, who cares, as long as it arrives on time, and why not call it Tesco Central seeing as the vast majority of the ground is now theirs? Every Little Helps.[/bold]
I thought St Mirren was only famous for using their ground to get irate Morton fans in and give them the vicky, and allowing fat naked plonkers to chase a ball about in an Irn Bru advert!
Paisley is a dive in a much bigger capacity than Glasgow, give them a new rail name and hope they don't come into Glasgow, folk fae Paisley are queerhawks and don't say a polite hi or ackowledge ye. The scumbags unite in feegie park, you really wouldn't want to have your car break down there. Seriously it's like Beirut.

I'd like to say more, but I need an early night. I've got to go to the doctors early in the morning to get my polio and diptheria jags before heading to crappelow in a couple of weeks.
