Jim Goodwin has encouraged Saints fans to come out in numbers and back the team in their William Hill Scottish Cup Fourth Round tie against Broxburn Athletic tomorrow.
The Buddies are in action for the first time in 2020 following the winter break as they host the East of Scotland League side at the Simple Digital Arena tomorrow afternoon.
It's been a tie that have captured the imagination of the visiting support with Broxburn having sold out their full allocation of tickets.
And now the Saints gaffer hopes that the home fans will also show up in good numbers to give the team their backing.
It’s important that we get a good home support tomorrow," he told stmirren.com.
"Hopefully they can come and be a part of what we hope will be a good cup run. It would be nice to say that you were there from the beginning and you just never know.
"I have to give Broxburn great credit for the amount of tickets that they have sold. To be bringing 1600 fans for any club is quite incredible so fair play to them.
"I think the weather is to be decent and we’ll have a few guys making their debuts who would love to see what the home support can be so hopefully we can get as good a home support as possible."
New signings Akin Famewo, Conor McCarthy and Jamie McGrath have all trained this week after joining the Buddies last week.
Jim confirmed that all three are likely to make their St Mirren debuts in tomorrow’s match with Conor McCarthy set for his first St Mirren start.
Conor [McCarthy] will start the game and Jamie [McGrath] will come on at some point.
"It’s important that we get those boys up to speed and they get their fitness up quickly so they can help us in the run-in.
"It’s invaluable for the Irish boys as they haven’t had a game since late October.
"We’ve worked hard on their fitness over the last couple of weeks and now it’s about getting them minutes and some game time."
Tickets for tomorrow’s match will be on-sale at the St Mirren Ticket Office right until kick-off and are also available online.
You can also download your ticket straight to your phone. The process is straight forward with digital tickets accessed through your smfctickets.co.uk account.
