The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the supporters of St Mirren Football Club on raising £3,240 for a charity in Bergen, Norway; notes that the money was raised by fans who were travelling to Bergen to watch St Mirren play SK Brann in the Europa Conference League; recognises that the fundraiser was set up by Josh Magennis, who saw that the large number of fans travelling to Bergen presented an opportunity to do good in the city; understands that most of the money was donated to Robin Hood Huset, a local homelessness charity, while £500 will be donated to a charity in Paisley, and thanks the fans for contributing positively to Paisley’s reputation on the European stage.
