Correct, lucky teams win cups, the 93/94 team was the closest we have been to winning the league since 1932, finishing 3rd , I think 4 points behind Rangers in a 44 game season and we were still in it up to the last 3 or 4 games.
I still have nightmares about the 2 Semi defeats, the replay v Airdrie when Stuart Rennie was penalised for taking too many steps with the ball and the 'JPR Gordon' Rangers game.
The two teams that spring to mind are the 93/94 team and the 2012/13 team. The 93/94 team was better than the 94/95 team despite the fact they finished 3rd rather than 2nd.
The 2012/13 team could be breathtaking, beating Celtic comfortably at Fir Park twice in three months. The cup defeats that season were 2-0 at Ibrox in the league cup to a third division Rangers team and losing a third round Scottish cup replay at Fir Park to an Aberdeen team that we then scudded 4-1 a fortnight later in the league with Fraser Kerr and Zaine Francis-Angol at full back. Celtic won the Scottish Cup that year, fair enough but St Mirren won the league cup with Craig Samson in goal...
1993/94 for me. Proved their consistency over the course of the season and came bloody close to winning the league, closer than most of us probably remember.
Many of my all time favourite Well players were in that squad and would walk straight into our team now.
defence - McCart (or his son) Paterson, Nihjolt , Boyd
Midfield - Young Uncle Phil, O'Neil , Bobby Russell, Kirky, Dolan, Griffin.
Up front - Dougie, Cooper
Most importantly "when the well went up to lift the Scottish cup" we were there.
