St. Mirren Park
St. Mirren Park, also known as The Paisley 2021 Stadium for sponsorship reasons, is a football stadium in Paisley, Scotland. It is the home of St. Mirren. The stadium is the sixth home of the club and replaced Love Street. The stadium was renamed "The Paisley 2021 Stadium" to help promote Paisley's bid to become a UK City of Culture in 2021.〔
==History==
Talks over a new stadium began on 15 January 2003, when the club met representatives from Tesco. The club were looking to sell their ground at Love Street for retail development. Selling Love Street would secure the necessary funding to build the new stadium. Planning applications for a retail development at Love Street were passed on 24 May 2005 and the club subsequently sold the ground to Tesco on 25 Apr 2007 for £15 million. The new stadium site broke ground on 7 January 2008 and was officially opened on 31 January 2009 at a cost of £8 million.〔 Before the first game at the new stadium there was a parade from Love Street to Greenhill Road to celebrate the opening of the stadium. Club chairman Stewart Gilmour and First Minister Alex Salmond were also present at the first match at the new ground. Alex Salmond unveiled a plaque before the game to commemorate the opening.〔 The game between St Mirren and Kilmarnock finished in a 1–1 draw, with the first goal at the new stadium being scored by Kilmarnock striker Kevin Kyle. Dennis Wyness scored St. Mirren's first goal at the new ground, in the same match.〔 The opening match set the record attendance of 7,542, a record which still stands.〔〔 St. Mirren Park has also become the regular home of the Scotland national under-21 football team.
In November 2015, St. Mirren agreed a two-year sponsorship deal with Renfrewshire Council to rename the stadium as the Paisley 2021 Stadium.〔 This was to promote Paisley's bid to become a UK City of Culture in 2021.
