Scott Tanser agrees contract extension until 2026


St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce that Scott Tanser has agreed a two-year contract extension that keeps him at the club until summer 2026. 

The 28-year-old joined Saints in June 2021 and has gone on to make 85 appearances for Stephen Robinson's men.

The left wing-back has scored four goals during his time at the Buddies, with two of those coming last month.

Scott's deal was due to expire at the end of the season, but the club has moved to tie him up for another two-and-a-half years. 

Speaking to stmirren.com, Scott said the deal came about quickly, but admitted it was an easy decision for him to commit his immediate future to Saints. 

He said: "It was very easy.

When I say it was done within hours I'm not exaggerating. I had a chat with the manager and Jim Gillespie in the morning and the deal was done by the afternoon. 

"I'm happy here," he continued.

"The team is good, the staff are good and the whole club is together as a whole. It's been amazing and the club has been amazing for me as well so extending my deal is great for me and my family.

"I'm really enjoying it and playing well so hopefully that continues."

Manager Stephen Robinson added: "I think it's very good business. I think Scott has arguably been the best left-back in the league this season. 

It's important that we do our business early and we recognise when people are doing well. I'm delighted that Scott has committed himself to the club for another two seasons.

"The amount of confidence he's playing with when fans have really got behind him is a lesson for all of us. Sometimes people need an arm round them.

"His ability is undeniable. He's a brilliant athlete and he's been terrific for us this season.

"The board appreciate that we are trying to keep building and we're not making 10 plus signings each season. That's the way we are trying to do our business.

"I believe it's very good business and hopefully there's more to come in the coming weeks."

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.

Saints were held to a 1-1 draw in Rangers only visit to The SMiSA Stadium last season. Jonah Ayunga gave Stephen Robinson's men the lead early in the second-half, but James Tavernier equalised with a late penalty for the visitors to take a share of the spoils. 

Rangers won the two matches at Ibrox, winning 5-2 in April and 4-0 in October last year. 

Our last win against Rangers came in December 2020 - a 3-2 win in the quarter-finals of the Viaplay Cup at The SMiSA Stadium.

St Mirren saddened by passing of Frank McDougall


St Mirren Football Club is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our former player Frank McDougall. 

Renowned as one of the best forwards in Scottish football during the 1980s, Frank joined St Mirren from Clydebank in June 1979 in a move that broke the Scottish transfer record at the time. During his five year stay at Saints, Frank scored 64 goals in 169 appearances. 

Frank would then move on to Aberdeen in 1984 where he became a huge fans favourite - scoring 44 goals in just 69 appearances - before having to retire with an injury in 1987.

The thoughts of everyone at St Mirren are with Frank's loved ones at this sad time.

A share of the spoils keeps Saints remain unbeaten in the league


St Mirren remained unbeaten in the cinch Premiership after a share of the spoils at Rugby Park.

Ex-Saint Brad Lyons put the hosts ahead on 19 minutes, but an own-goal from Kyle Magennis a little over 10 minutes later saw the Buddies take a point back to Paisley in a 1-1 draw and make it seven without defeat in the league.

Stephen Robinson made three changes to the side that was defeated at Easter Road on Wednesday night. In came Charles Dunne, Keanu Baccus and Conor McMenamin in place of Richard Taylor, Caolan Boyd-Munce and Toyosi Olusanya.

Despite a fairly positive start for Saints, it was the hosts who took the lead on 19 minutes through Brad Lyons. The former Buddie charged down a Dunne clearance with the ball spinning into the air. Lyons raced on to it, beating Zach Hemming to the ball to nod home. 

Saints drew level just after the half-hour mark. Mandron laid the ball into the path of Scott Tanser whose dangerous ball from the left was turned into his own net by ex-Saint Kyle Magennis. Unfortunately for the St Mirren Youth Academy graduate, he had to be substituted with an injury just a few minutes later. 

Greg Kiltie had an opportunity in injury time at the end of the half when Baccus' deflected effort fell into his path. He turned and got the shot away but it too was deflected and drifted wide.  

The second-half was a stuffy affair devoid of any real opportunities for either side. The manager had to contend with McMenamin coming off after a knock on 64 minutes, while Olusanya was introduced in place of Mandron as Saints looked to take advantage of the forward's pace. 

But it was Kilmarnock who were seeing more of the ball in the latter stages of the game as they searched for their first league win since the opening day of the season. Five minutes of additional time were added with Matty Kennedy blootering a free-kick well over from 30 yards as the game approached its end. Kilmarnock chased for a winner with their captain Kyle Vassell doing well to break forward and hold the ball up in stoppage time before rolling it to substitute Liam Polworth inside the area, but he took it first time and knocked over to ensure that it would end in a point for each side. 

Full-Time: Kilmarnock 1-1 St Mirren

St Mirren: Hemming, Fraser, Gogic, Dunne, Strain, Baccus, O'Hara (c), Tanser, Kiltie (Greive 83), Mandron (Olusanya 70), McMenamin (Small 64)

A positive point at a difficult venue says manager


It's a hard place to come. We'll take this as a positive point."

Stephen Robinson gives his reaction following today's 1-1 draw at Kilmarnock.
