Visitor Information

  • Electronic Ticketing System

    At the SMiSA Stadium we have an electronic ticketing system in place at the turnstiles.

    The process of using the system is fairly straight-forward and easy to use:

    • On entering the turnstile you will see the ticket reader.
    • Place your match ticket (with the barcode or QR code facing upwards) or smartcard – into the aperture
    • Once the ticket/smartcard is accepted into the system the green light will illuminate and an audio alert will sound after which you should hear the turnstile being unlocked
    • Push the turnstile gate and enter the stadium as you normally would.

    The whole process will only take a few seconds.

    Please note that there will be stewards in attendance to help where required.

  • Street Parking on Matchday

    The Club has been made aware of problems occasioned by inconsiderate parking in the area of Tannahill Road.

    Seemingly supporters are parking despite the presence of double yellow lines and as a consequence local bus routes are also being blocked because streets in this area are narrow and fans are parking on both sides. People, many of whom are elderly, are having to walk from Greenhill Road to their homes because buses can’t get access.

    Residents who have cars parked in driveways are experiencing similar difficulties getting their vehicles in and out. On being approached by local residents some supporters have been somewhat aggressive which could lead to confrontation.

    St Mirren Football Club strives to be a good neighbour and we would ask that ALL supporters attending the stadium not only park in accordance with local parking restrictions but also give consideration to the needs of local residents by parking sensibly so as not to occasion an unnecessary obstruction.

  • Picking Up & Dropping Off by Car on Match Day

    We are also aware of problems with patrons parking at the front of the Main Stand to pick up disabled supporters at the end of the game. This area is a 'no parking' zone on match days (with cones on the road) and has to be kept clear for emergency access. It is an inappropriate location for disabled spectator uplifts, as not only does it cause an obstruction on the road, it also causes a danger to pedestrians leaving the stadium.

    Please note that the designated pick-up/drop off points are either in Drums Avenue or the two lay-byes on Ferguslie Park Avenue.

  • Finding the SMiSA Stadium

  • Getting to the SMiSA Stadium

    BY ROAD

    Follow signs for Paisley & Glasgow Airport. Exit the M8 at Junction 29 (St James’ Interchange) which is just after Glasgow Airport turn off if travelling east to west. Be careful not to exit on to the A737 which is signposted for Irvine. It is best to stay in the middle lane when passing the Airport as this leads naturally to the St James’ Interchange exit.

    At the interchange take the first left onto a dual carriageway with some football parks on the left hand side. Follow this road and after a sharp right hand bend you should now be in Greenock Road. Then take your first right on to Clark Street and drive to the end of the street which is the junction with Greenhill Road, turn left and you will see the stadium on the opposite side of the road.

    BY RAIL

    Get train from Paisley Gilmour Street to Paisley St James – exit from the station is straight onto Greenhill Road where the stadium is facing you. To plan your journey by rail with Scotrail please click HERE.

From the Town Hall cross the High Street towards the Piazza Shopping Centre, when acoss walk towards the town centre until you come to Gilmour Street. Turn right on to Gilmour Street and walk towards the railway station which is about 150 yards away. From there you can get train to Paisley St James or if you prefer to walk the following routes are advised by the police:

    Home fans: cross road to the left on to St James Street – follow through up Underwood Road then turn right at Greenhill Road where stadium is 200 yards further along the road. Access to the Main Stand is from Greenhill Road and the South and West Stands will be accessed from Drums Avenue.

    Away fans: cross road to Love Street continue up the street till you come to Albion Street where you will turn left. Follow Albion Street until you come to the junction with Greenock Road where you will turn right. Cross the road then walk about 200 yards before taking your first left on to Clark Street. Walk straight up Clark Street to the end of the street which is the junction with Greenhill Road, turn left and you will see the the stadium on the opposite side of the road. Access to the North Stand will be from Ferguslie Park Avenue.

Street Stuff Awards Nominations

Everyone at St Mirren wishes Street Stuff all the best at tonight’s COSLA Excellence Awards.

The COSLA Excellence Awards celebrate the best in Scottish local government, with an emphasis on rewarding innovative and passionate developments, and recognising projects that can demonstrate excellent service delivery to communities.

Street Stuff - nominated in the Local Matters category at tonight’s awards - provides a range of activities primarily in the evenings and at weekends across Renfrewshire. It began delivering activities in Renfrewshire in 2009, delivering a sustained reduction in reported youth disorder and anti-social behaviour.

Stephen Gallacher, Street Stuff programme leader said: “It’s a great honour to be nominated for these awards and a great testament to the hard work everyone puts in. It’s a great example of the club’s work within the community and the efforts from Renfrewshire Council.”

It’s the first in a double of recent nominations with the programme also nominated for a ROCCO Award for Community Champion of the Year.

140th Anniversary Book - Uplift and availability information.

The 140th Anniversary book will be launched at the Club's Anniversary Dinner tomorrow (Friday 6th October).

Thereafter copies will be delivered to the Paisley 2021 Stadium at the start of next week.

Copies will be available to uplift from the Club shop from Tuesday (10th October). The shop is open daily from 10am until 2pm Monday to Friday.

We regret that copies cannot be uplifted on match days. This is due to the volume of customers the shop has to deal with. We ask that fans ensure they bring their electronic proof of purchase. As the books are numbered there are no additional copies for sale. All purchases will therefore be checked off as each is collected.

Again if you are collecting a copy on behalf of a friend proof of purchase will be required.

Thank you for helping create this historic and collectible publication.

Jack Ross - One Year On

Today marks one year since Jack Ross was appointed as the St Mirren manager.

One year on Jack also sits down with stmirren.com to discuss how the past year has gone and his hopes for the club. 

Jack Baird: Excited for a difficult challenge

It's been a big season already for centre-half Jack Baird. 

The young defender is rapidly approaching the 100 appearance mark after clocking his 92nd in the 2-1 win over Brechin. 

He's likely to take another step closer to his century when Raith Rovers come to Paisley in the IRN-BRU Cup on Saturday.

Long term absentees Harry Davis and Gary MacKenzie remain out while loanee Jamie McCart is cup-tied after featuring for Celtic Colts in the first round. 

Lewis Morgan and Liam Smith are both on international duty also giving some other faces the chance to come into the side and impress. 

Jack knows the difficulty Saints will face coming up against League One Rovers this weekend, but is excited for the match.

It will be a difficult game as they are top of their league as well," he told stmirren.com

"But we've got players who will fill in and do well. I'm looking forward to it and obviously we are looking to win the game. 

"Cup runs are always good because they keep giving you a number of games. The best bit of being a footballer is playing games so the longer you stay in the cups the better. 

"I enjoyed playing in the final last season as it was my first ever final. Hopefully we can do something similar this season.

"It's good to have a break from the league and it's nice to have a cup game thrown in now and then. It's something a wee bit different and the more games the better."

The Saints come into the cup game this weekend on the back of reclaiming top spot in the Ladbrokes Championship in the win over Brechin. 

It's a far cry from what Baird has been used to in his years with the Buddies. 

But he is relishing the challenge of being at the top. 

It's good and it's a different type of pressure from last season," he said.

"Last year we were winning games to try and stay in this league. This season we are winning games to try and stay at the top. It's a big difference but you approach them with the same attitude. All the games are must win because you want to stay where you are. 

"Regardless of how other teams are getting on as long as we keep winning we'll stay on top. Last year was difficult where getting three points might not get you up the table. But this season taking three points will get us something.

"We just need to keep winning games and concentrate on ourselves. It's motivating itself to be top of the table because I've never really experienced that in my career. There's a different feeling on a Monday and you come into training knowing you are top of the table."

Accessing Online Ticket System

We are aware that some people are having issues accessing the online ticket system.

If you use an iPad, iPhone or MacBook you will be unable to use the system. This is out-with our hands as it is due to a dispute between Apple and Adobe. We are currently trying  to resolve the issue, but it involves writing a programme for each of the 8,000 seats within the stadium.
