St Mirren chairman Gordon Scott has assured supporters the club is in a “strong position” to survive the indefinite suspension of football. The St Mirren Independent Supporters Association is scheduled to take a majority stake in the club next year, four years ahead of initially planned after agreeing a deal for Paisley-based charity Kibble to purchase a 28 per cent stake last month. “As a club and in partnership with Street Stuff and the St Mirren Charitable Foundation we are looking at ways we can help those in need at this time,” he said. “We are unsure what form that will take as the information on the control of the virus changes on a daily basis and we cannot put anyone at risk. “If anyone is interested in volunteering to help in whatever form that might take can you please email your contact details to gayle.brannigan@stmirren.com and state whether you have your own transport or not.”
