Tracing their roots back to 1877, St Mirren have built a rich footballing tradition in Scotland as the residents of The SMISA Stadium. A team resolutely grounded in Scottish soil, a local institution with global aspirations, if you will.
The collective value of St Mirren's squad, a group of 27 players as of today, averages out to roughly £7 million per the wisdom of Transfermarkt. Situational awareness and ambition mingle here, coalescing into a potent force.
At 25, the average age of the squad is a matter of statistical dot-joining. It's an age of energy and potential, the prime period for taking the raw materials of footballing talent and moulding it into something more substantial.
In terms of their most recent pursuits, St Mirren have been making their presence felt in three distinct competitions. To start with, they were holding the 9th place in the Premiership; a position surely not to their desired standard, but worth considering in the light of broader circumstances. Further afield, the Buddies have made considerable strides in the League Cup, going as far as the final. In the Scottish Cup, they made it to the hard-fought stage of the quarter-finals. Each endeavour providing glimpses into the deck of cards they're playing with.
