The former Manchester United boss (below) was back in Paisley 48 years after being sacked by Saints. It was Motherwell who put on a show for their hosts’ special guest as they bounced back from their Scottish Cup exit at Aberdeen.

Goals from Elijah Just, Tawanda Maswanhise and Ibrahim Said had them in command even before St Mirren defender Richard King was sent off for an off-the-ball incident in the 52nd minute.

Emmanuel Longelo added a fourth and Norwegian striker Eythor Bjorgolfsson fired a spectacular first goal for the club.

The visiting fans chanted “We're gonna win the league".
