Plans to introduce modern changing facilities and reinstate four grass football pitches in Paisley will be kickstarted this year after the project hit a snag.
The old outdated pavilions at St James’ playing fields were knocked down – with a replacement building earmarked for the spot known locally as the racecourse.
But Renfrewshire Council's planned improvements, which a report said aimed to restore the location as a “desirable destination” for the beautiful game, were delayed when the tender process resulted in a single bid that was “significantly over budget”.
