St.Johnston Football Club

St Johnstone Football Club stands alone in Scottish football history: the only team never to have lost at home in European competition. In "Images of Sport: St.Johnston Football Club," the author masterfully curates over 250 rare photographs, portraits, and treasured memorabilia, bringing to life the club’s proud tradition and enduring spirit. This visual feast traces the club’s journey from its founding in 1885 by members of the St Johnstone Cricket Club, through eras of both triumph and adversity, always with a focus on the community of Perth and the unwavering Saints supporters.
The author’s dedication shines through in the careful selection of images depicting legendary players—icons such as Sir Alex Ferguson, Ally McCoist, Sandy McLaren, John Connolly, and Henry Hall—alongside the unsung heroes who helped shape the team’s legacy. This blend of celebrated footballers and lesser-known figures creates a rich tapestry, capturing the full breadth of St Johnstone’s contribution to Scottish football.
From the modest slopes of Hampden in the 1980s to the electrifying atmosphere at Muirton Park, where 14,000 fans witnessed the Saints’ famous victory over SV Hamburg, the book is a nostalgic celebration for every supporter. It is an essential addition for anyone seeking a comprehensive history of St Johnstone FC, reflecting the author’s passion and commitment to preserving the club’s heritage.
"Images of Sport: St.Johnston Football Club" is more than a historical record—it is a heartfelt tribute, a visual love letter curated by an author who understands the unique bond between football, memory, and place
