That the Parliament congratulates St Johnstone FC on winning the 2025-26 Scottish Championship title and securing an immediate return to the Scottish Premiership; notes that the title was wrapped up with two games to spare after a 2–0 away victory over Dunfermline Athletic on 21 April 2026, with goals from Reece McAlear and Ruari Paton; commends manager Simo Valakari and his players for a dominant campaign in which they led the table from the opening day; thanks the fans, staff, board and St Johnstone Community Trust for their support, and wishes the club every success on its return to the Premiership.
