They`ve got the home fans in the far right section of this stand and also the other three stands. Pars fans are still pouring in and no idea where they`re going to be sitting. It`s braw sunny weather here in Paisley today, with the pitch slightly wet from overnight showers. Have ye spotted our new signing yet? Good afternoon from a sunny Paisley for today`s SPFL Championship fixture between St Mirren and DAFC. |
