Simo’s Saints tumble through the trapdoor
Scottish Daily Express
|May 15, 2025
ST JOHNSTONE’S 16-year stay in the William Hill Premiership is over after their 2-1 defeat away to resurgent Hearts in the penultimate game of the campaign ensured they can no longer climb off the foot of the table.
Simo Valakari’s side have been bottom ever since losing at Tynecastle the weekend before Christmas and, despite a valiant effort to improve their predicament in recent months, they were unable to take their fight to the final day.
An early own goal from Saints defender Barry Douglas followed by Alan Forrest’s strike left the Perth men up against it at the break. Despite pulling one back through substitute Graham Carey, their fate was confirmed when Ross County — the team directly above them — secured a point away to Dundee with a controversial equalising penalty several minutes after the match at Tynecastle had finished.
