St. Mirren Football Club is a Scottish professional football club based in Paisley, Renfrewshire, founded in 1877. The team plays in the Scottish Premier League, having been promoted from the First Division in 2005–06. The team has two nicknames: the "Buddies", which is widely used; and the "Saints".

St. Mirren have won the Scottish Cup three times – 1926, 1959 and 1987 – and have played in European competition four times: UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1987–88 and the UEFA Cup in 1980–81, 1983–84 and 1985–86.

For the first 115 years of its existence the club played its home games at its stadium in Love Street, but since 2009 its home ground has been St. Mirren Park, which has a capacity of 8,023.

St. Mirren was formed as a gentlemen's club which included, among other sports, cricket and rugby in the second half of the 19th century. The increasing popularity of football ensured that by 1877 the members had decided to play association football and 1877 is the football club's official foundation date. They are named after Saint Mirin, the founder of a church at the site of Paisley Abbey and Patron Saint of Paisley. There is also a street in Paisley named St. Mirren Street.

Leigh Griffiths (born 20 August 1990) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a striker. He is signed to Football League Championship club Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Griffiths started his career at Livingston where he made his debut as a sixteen year old. He then moved to Dundee in 2009 for £125,000. During his five years in the Scottish First Division he earned six player of the month awards. In 2011 with Dundee in financial trouble, he moved to Wolves for around £150,000.

Griffiths made his debut for Livingston as a sixteen-year-old, after coming on as an 82nd minute substitute during a 3–1 defeat to Airdrie United on 30 December 2006. He went on trial at Premier League team West Bromwich Albion in April 2009 and impressed enough to warrant a move. However, Tony Mowbray's departure as manager saw Griffiths' chance of a move ended.

On 25 June 2009, Griffiths completed a £125,000 move to Scottish First Division rivals Dundee, despite having an offer rejected for the player back in April. Griffiths later revealed that he had rejected contract talks with Hearts, citing his belief he would benefit from more first team football at Dundee and Hearts' then defensive playing style as the reasons. In 2009-10 he scored 3 goals to help Dundee win the Scottish Challenge Cup. In January 2011 Livingston claimed that they have yet to receive payment from Dundee. Dundee denied the claim but it raised doubt over the future transfer of the player at the time. Griffiths became a fans favourite during his spell at Dundee and scored 34 goals in 62 appearances, which included a memorable 30 yard free kick in the Scottish Cup against Rangers.
