Gus keen to get going
St Mirren, 12:16, December 23, 2008 ,
St Mirren's players will be introduced to their new stadium soon in advance of the first game there against Kilmarnock on January 31.
The Buddies were given the keys to their new 8,029-capacity ground in Greenhill Road on Monday and manager Gus MacPherson says it crucial his players quickly settle into their new £15million surroundings.
"Everyone is very excited about it, we are all looking forward to getting down here on a day-to-day basis and familiarise ourselves with the surroundings," MacPherson said.
"The most important aspect for me is the playing surface and it's top class.
"We are all looking forward to getting some training sessions and bounce games on it and they can familiarise themselves to it.
"They have got to know what they are coming into before the first game on January 31 against Kilmarnock, so we will get down here as much as we can.
"We will try to get the players down in the next couple of weeks and they can have a look round, and also get some work done."
