Title chance for Saints on Saturday

St Mirren could clinch the Ladbrokes Championship title on Saturday if results go their way.

St Mirren could clinch the Ladbrokes Championship title on Saturday if results go their way.

Jack Ross's side will seal a return to the top flight if they beat relegated Brechin City at Glebe Park and Livingston fail to collect maximum points at home to Morton.

The Paisley club were champions in 1999/00 when Tom Hendrie was manager and again in 2005/06 under Gus MacPherson. The Buddies are seeking a hat-trick of second-tier titles since the four-division system was introduced in the mid-1990s.

If Saints are made to wait this weekend their next opportunity will be against Dundee United at Tannadice on Tuesday.

Championship winners since the four-division structure was introduced:
1994/95 - Raith Rovers
1995/96 - Dunfermline Athletic
1996/97 - St Johnstone
1997/98 - Dundee
1998/99 - Hibernian
1999/00 - St Mirren
2000/01 - Livingston
2001/02 - Partick Thistle
2002/03 - Falkirk
