Logo and Trademark..............................
St. Johnstone Football Club are a Scottish football club based in Perth. Although they are officially recorded as being formed in 1884, research has shown that they did not play their first game until February 1885. The club plays its home games at McDiarmid Park.
At the close of the 2006-07 season, St. Johnstone finished second in the Scottish First Division. For the second season running, this was the club's highest placing since being relegated from the Scottish Premier League in 2002. As only one club is promoted, St. Johnstone will again compete for the First Division title in the 2007-08 season.
After a period of steady decline, the club were eventually relegated from the Premier League in 2002, and remain in the First Division. On November 8, 2006, St. Johnstone beat Rangers 2-0 at Ibrox to reach the semi-finals of the League Cup. Steve Milne scored both of the goals. This was the club's first victory at Ibrox since April 1971. It was also the first time the club has beaten Rangers in a cup competition, and the first time that Rangers have been eliminated from a major cup competition at home by lower-division opposition. On January 31, 2007, Saints were knocked out of the League Cup at the semi-final stage by Hibs. On April 14, 2007, St. Johnstone were beaten 2-1 by Celtic at Hampden in the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup.
On April 21, 2007, second-placed Saints won 3-0 at home to Queen of the South, while table-toppers Gretna played out a goalless draw against the visiting Clyde, which put the Perth club just one point (and seven goals) behind Gretna. As a result, the First Division championship was to be decided on the final day of the season.
Seven days later, St. Johnstone were pipped to the First Division championship by Gretna, who had led the division for the majority of the season. Saints won 4-3 at Hamilton Academical, but James Grady scored an injury-time winner for Gretna at Ross County. The results maintained Gretna's one-point lead and they achieved promotion to the Premier League. Gretna's caretaker manager is former Saints player Davie Irons.
Owen Coyle, who had been St. Johnstone's manager since April 2005, left the club on November 22, 2007, to become manager of English club Burnley. Saints' next game, a Challenge Cup Final tie against Dunfermline three days later, saw them win their first cup since the Scottish Consolation Cup of 1911, with a 3-2 scoreline.
Saints midfielder Derek McInnes was appointed as manager on 27 November 2007, after Coyle's assistant, Sandy Stewart, who had been in charge in a caretaker-manager capacity for the Challenge Cup Final, decided to follow Coyle south to Burnley. McInnes will begin as a player-manager.
