The St Mirren airdome has been brought down temporarily due to adverse weather conditions. 

An accumulation of snow has fallen down the side of the dome causing a tear in the membrane of the revolving door. 

Repairs will be carried out on the dome to get it fully operational but it is likely this won't begin until the snow clears.

Anyone with dome bookings is advised to contact info@stmirren.com for enquiries and updates.

St Mirren Football Club apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. 

St Mirren are delighted to announce the loan signing of Celtic’s Mark Hill until the end of the season subject to SFA approval.

The 19 year-old midfielder joins up with Saints until the end of the campaign.

Hill, who signed a three-year deal with the Hoops in May last year, has yet to feature for the Celtic first team but has impressed in their development squad and featured in the UEFA Youth League and IRN-BRU Cup.

Speaking on the move, Jack Ross said: “I think Mark gives us something different. He’s dynamic, he’s powerful, probably a more naturally defensive type in the midfield which we’ve not really had this season.

"He’s a player I’ve been really impressed with whenever I’ve seen him and I know Brendan Rodgers has high hopes for him at Celtic.

"I’m excited to work with him and look forward to welcoming him to the group.”

Mark joined up with The Buddies for training this morning and said: "Obviously Jamie McCart was here and he said it was really good. I spoke to him a few times about it and he said training was decent and the club was good. It's my first day in and it's been really positive."

St Mirren's 2-0 victory away to Dumbarton on Saturday marked Stephen McGinn's 100th start for the Buddies.

The captain marked this occasion with his first goal of the season, with a well placed finish on the 58th minute, to help Saints to their sixth win in seven games.

Speaking to Buddievision, McGinn said: "It couldn't have been any better to be honest, I'm delighted to get off the mark.

"I've been having a bit of banter with Kyle Magennis about who would score first, so it was nice to take that unofficial tag as well. I seen him lining up a free kick, and he's hit it so well. I was glad to squeeze my goal in before he starts producing free kicks like that."

McGinn continued: "It's never an easy place to come, and there's been times were we've played well here and we haven't won, so the second goal gives you that cushion.

"We played so well today that at times, if we were a bit more clinical, we could have scored in the first half and added to the two in the second half."

St Mirren have now extended their lead at the top of the Championship to eight points, after closest rivals Dundee United drew with Dunfermline at East End Park the same afternoon.

But the Saints skipper is under no illusion that it will be a tough task to travel to Fife in the League a week on Friday.

"It's always nice to extend the lead, but we go to Dunfermline in our next league game, and we know how tough it is for anyone to go there.

"We just do what we do, and we've put a really good run together and we just want to keep that going."

Saints have a welcome break from league action this week, as they prepare for the long journey north to take on Aberdeen in the fourth round of the Scottish Cup and the captain knows the team will have to be at their very best to progress to the next round.

McGinn said: "It'll be really tough, they're the second best team in the country and have been for the past four or five years.

"It makes it even harder having to go up to Pittodrie, but we'll go up and we'll work on a game plan, and we know that we will have to be at the top of our game to get in to the hat for the next round.

"We have the confidence and we're used to winning games, so we'll go up there and hope to do ourselves justice." 

This coming Saturday (20th January) Saints head north-east to Pittodrie Stadium to face Aberdeen in a William Hill Scottish Cup tie and then the following weekend it is Friday Night Football on 26th January as Jack Ross takes his side to East End Park for a Ladbrokes Championship fixture against Dunfermline Athletic.

St Mirren U20s match against Celtic has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

The Buddies were due to face the Young Hoops at The Paisley 2021 Stadium in the SPFL Development League this evening.

A new date for this fixture will be announced in due course. 

St Mirren Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Ryan Flynn on a two-and-a-half-year deal. 

The 29 year-old midfielder joins The Buddies having recently departed English League One side Oldham Athletic. 

Flynn began his career at Falkirk before joining Liverpool as a teenager in 2005. He had a loan spell at Wrexham before returning to Falkirk in 2009. 

His form at The Bairns earned him a move to Sheffield United where he played alongside current St Mirren captain Stephen McGinn before joining Oldham in 2016. 

Speaking on the move, St Mirren manager Jack Ross said: "I'm delighted to have him on board. He's a really good player with really good quality and pedigree. I'm excited to see him and I know he's looking forward to it as well." 

Ryan said: "I'm just glad it is done now. I know Stephen [McGinn] really well so I know how things have gone for the last year. The boys have been flying really and the football they are playing is really good. I just want to get in and help as much as I can."

Buddievision subscribers can watch the full interview with Ryan here.

St Mirren extended their lead at the top of the Ladbrokes Championship to eight points after a well deserved win over Dumbarton at The Your Radio 103FM Stadium. 

Second half goals from Cammy Smith and captain Stephen McGinn, who was making his 100th St Mirren start, were enough to earn The Buddies all three points. 

Saints started the match strongly winning the first corner of the match on four minutes. The ball in was cleared only as far as Liam Smith who drilled towards goal. It fell to Cammy Smith who looked to wriggle into space to get a shot away but the forward was crowded out by the Dumbarton defence. 

The Buddies had the ball in the net on six minutes when Kyle Magennis rolled home Gavin Reilly's cutback. But the linesman had ruled that the striker had taken the ball out of play before playing across to Magennis. 

St Mirren had started brightly and went close to taking the lead on 11 minutes through Lewis Morgan only to be thwarted by one of Dumbarton's five ex-Saints. Cammy Smith found Morgan on the left with a wonderful pass and the winger got the shot away only to be denied by goalkeeper Scott Gallacher who made a fine block. 

Dumbarton reminded Saints they were still in the match when Tom Walsh sent a long range effort by the post. 

But it was still The Buddies who were in control and they should have opened the scoring just before the half hour mark. Reilly profited from a break of the ball in the middle of the park and raced clear on goal. However, the striker couldn't add to his 20 goals this season as he shot agonisingly wide of the far post. Reilly went close again five minutes later when he was found inside the box by Stelios, but he clipped wide. 

Ex-Saint Tom Walsh, who scored the winner the last time these two sides met, had the last chance of the half after escaped from Liam Smith. But the winger shot straight at Samson who gathered with ease. 

Half Time: Dumbarton 0-0 St Mirren

St Mirren had been the team on top in the first half and wasted little time after the break in making their dominance pay. 

On 47 minutes Ian McShane played the ball wide to Stelios who burst forward on the left. The Cypriot put the ball into a good area for Cammy Smith who only had to ensure he got a touch on it to nod beyond Gallacher to put St Mirren 1-0 in front. 

Saints were cleared buoyed by the goal and were playing some great football. Lewis Morgan went on a good run which resulted in his shot being deflected by for a corner. Kyle Magennis whipped in a delightful ball but there were no takers. Stelios did well to find Reilly in the box five minutes later but the striker screwed the shot wide of the target. 

The Buddies' good play would be rewarded with a second goal just before the hour mark and how fitting it was for the captain to score on his 100th start in St Mirren colours. A corner from Magennis found Reilly who had a shot blocked. It found its way to McGinn who coolly stroked the ball into the far corner to double Saints' advantage. 

The second goal killed the game as a contest. Saints would have chances to further their lead with Magennis almost grabbing his first of the season when he forced Gallacher to push away his strong free kick. 

Dumbarton had a few half chances with a long range effort from Alistair Roy and a Walsh snapshot. But in the end Saints were worthy winners and extend their lead at the top to eight points following Dundee United's draw away to Dunfermline.
