St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce that Stephen McGinn will be inducted into the St Mirren Hall of Fame at our Player of the Year Awards Dinner in May.
A firm fans favourite and former captain, Stephen made 203 appearances for St Mirren across two spells at the club.
He made his Saints debut in 2007 after coming through the ranks as a youth at the club. The highlight of his first spell came in November 2008 when he scored the winner in our last ever game against Rangers at Love Street.
Stephen would move on in January 2010 as he joined English side Watford for an undisclosed fee. After spells with Shrewsbury Town, Sheffield United, Dundee and Wycombe Wanderers, he returned to Paisley to join Saints for a second time in January 2017.
Quickly given the captain's armband by then manager Jack Ross, Stephen played an integral part in our 'Great Escape' in 2017 with the Buddies securing survival in the Championship on the final day of the 2016/17 season after a 1-1 draw against Hibernian at Easter Road. He was also instrumental the following season and secured his status in St Mirren's history as captain of the side that won the Championship and promotion back to the Premiership in 2018.
Speaking to stmirren.com, Stephen said: "Over both my spells here I just loved my time and I'm really proud of the accolade.
"Both were totally different spells, but both I think of as big successes."
Stephen will join John Sutton, Peter Godfrey and Billy Thomson as the 2022 inductees into the St Mirren Hall of Fame.
