On July 3, 1976, Tina Turner waited until her husband, Ike, fell asleep in their Dallas hotel room. Her face was swollen and bruised from another beating. In her pocket were just 36 cents and a Mobil gas card. Nothing more. She slipped out of the Statler Hilton and ran. Not toward a car. Not toward help she could call. She ran straight across Interstate 30, weaving through traffic in the dark, nearly hit by a truck, driven by nothing but survival. On the other side stood the Ramada Inn. The manager recognized her instantly, even through the injuries. He gave her a room on the eleventh floor and placed a guard outside her door. For three days, Tina stayed hidden there, too injured to even eat properly, letting her body begin to heal. Three weeks later, she filed for divorce. When asked what she wanted from sixteen years of marriage, her answer stunned everyone. She wanted nothing except her name. No house. No money. No royalties. Just “Tina Turner.” A name created to control her, now the only thing she could use to rebuild her life. She walked away with debt, an IRS tax lien, and an industry that believed she was finished. Nearly forty years old, a Black woman in a business obsessed with youth, with no ownership of her past music. The odds were stacked brutally against her. But Tina refused to accept defeat. She turned to Nichiren Buddhism, chanting daily for strength. She took every job she could find. Game shows. Hotel lounges. County fairs. Corporate events. She even cleaned houses between performances. While the world called her a has-been, she was quietly reconstructing herself piece by piece. Then came 1984. At forty-four, she released Private Dancer. It changed everything. The album sold more than twenty million copies. “What’s Love Got to Do with It” reached number one, her first solo chart-topper. She won three Grammy Awards in 1985, performed at Live Aid, and starred in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. The world finally recognized her as the Queen of Rock and Roll. Her second act lasted decades. Record-breaking tours. Twelve Grammy Awards. Over one hundred million records sold. A career rebuilt entirely on her own terms. And love found her too. Erwin Bach met Tina at an airport in 1986 and never left her side. When her kidneys failed in 2016, he offered her one of his own without hesitation. In 2017, he kept that promise and saved her life. On May 24, 2023, Tina Turner passed away peacefully in Switzerland at the age of eighty-three, with Erwin beside her. She left behind more than music. She left proof. It is never too late to reclaim your life. You can begin again at forty. At fifty. At any age. All it takes is the courage to cross the road. Thirty-six cents. A gas card. And an unbreakable will. That is how legends are made.

On International Women's Day, we want to thank the women who are integral to our club, and to highlight the hard work that they undertake behind the scenes, supporting St Mirren FC. Today, we will be shining a spotlight on the women working both as part of our operational team, and our volunteers. #InternationalWomensDay2026

International Women’s Day wasn’t created to celebrate women. It didn’t start with flowers or hashtags It was created because women were dying and they started getting angry In the early 1900s, thousands of women worked in factories across New York City. They worked 14–16 hour shifts, earned a fraction of men’s wages, and had almost no legal protection. In 1908, around 15,000 women marched through the city demanding better pay, shorter hours, and the right to vote. Many people dismissed them as hysterical and rebellious. But they didn’t stop. In 1910, German activist Clara Zetkin stood before a conference in Copenhagen and proposed something radical: A global day where women would rise together and demand equality. Then a disaster changed everything. In 1911, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire in New York City killed 146 garment workers. Most of them were young immigrant women. The factory owners had locked the doors to stop workers from taking breaks. When the fire started, many couldn’t escape. Some workers jumped from the building as crowds watched below. The tragedy shocked the world and intensified the fight for women’s rights and safer working conditions. Decades later, the United Nations officially recognized International Women’s Day on March 8th 1975. So when people say “Happy International Women’s Day,” remember: This day didn’t start with celebration. It started with protest, anger, and women refusing to accept the way the world treated them.

Be honest for a second: If your sibling called you at 3am and said “don’t ask questions, just come” Are you actually showing up?

St Mirren Football Club is pleased to confirm that our appeal against the red card shown to Richard King during Saturday’s match against Motherwell has been successful and the defender will be available for this weekend’s match away to Livingston. While we are pleased with this outcome, we are frustrated by the decision taken on the field and the requirement to go to an appeals process. We are determined to work together with the Scottish FA’s refereeing department to ensure standards will improve for the benefit of our supporters and the wider Scottish game.
