More on St. Mirren F.C.
Description from Wikipedia:
Saint Mirren Football Club (commonly known by the shortening St. Mirren or by nicknames; The Buddies and The Saints) is a Scottish professional football club based in Paisley, Renfrewshire. St. Mirren play in the Scottish Premier League, having been promoted from the First Division in 2005-06. They are managed by former player Gus MacPherson. St. Mirren have won the Scottish Cup three times in 1926, 1959 and 1987 and have played four times in European competition (UEFA Cup Winners' Cup 1987-1988 and the UEFA Cup 1980-1981, 1983-1984 and 1985-1986). == St Mirren FC background ==
Saint Mirren were formed as a gentlemen's club which included amongst other sports, cricket and rugby in the late 19th century. The increasing popularity of football ensured that by 1877 the members had decided to switch codes and play association football. They are named after Saint Mirin the founder of a church at the site of Paisley Abbey and Patron Saint of Paisley.
The club originally wore scarlet and blue strips, however after one season changed to the current black and white striped shirts, which have been worn all bar one season in the 1900s where cream tops were used. The reasoning behind the use of black and white tops is unclear.
In 1922, St. Mirren were invited to play in the Barcelona Cup invitational tournament to celebrate the inauguration of the Les Corts, the then home of FC Barcelona. They won the tournament by beating Notts County in the final.
