St Johnstone received incredible backing from Perth fans last night, led vocally by the Fair City Unity ultras group.

St Johnstone secured their Premiership status with a 4-0 win over Inverness Caley Thistle on Monday.

Perth fans turned out in big numbers to back their side on a do-or-die night at McDiarmid Park.

The Fair City Unity (FCU) ultras group kept the noise cranked up for the full 90 minutes after embarking on a “corteo” (an organised march to the stadium) pre-match.

Their side rewarded them by racking up four unanswered goals in the second half – and cementing top-flight football next season.

We have picked out the best pictures from a night where St Johnstone fans and players did each other proud.
