										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>St Johnstone secured their Championship title with a decisive <strong>1-0 victory</strong> over Ayr on May 1, 2026, finishing the season 11 points clear at the top of the table. Meanwhile, Ross County faced relegation after suffering a dramatic <strong>3-2 defeat</strong> to Raith.</p>
<p>Kai Fotheringham scored the only goal of the match against Ayr, ensuring St Johnstone&#8217;s successful campaign. This victory marked St Johnstone&#8217;s fifth consecutive win in the Championship, solidifying their dominance throughout the season.</p>
<p>On another front, Ross County ended their season at the bottom of the table following their loss to Raith. The match featured an intense finish, with Jayden Carbon equalizing for Ross County in the sixth minute of stoppage time before they ultimately succumbed to defeat.</p>
<p>Airdrieonians also faced challenges, finishing in the relegation play-off spots after drawing 1-1 with Morton. Euan Henderson had given Airdrieonians an early lead just three minutes into the second half before Lewis Strapp received a red card shortly thereafter, complicating their efforts.</p>
<p>This season has been particularly tough for Ross County, who suffered back-to-back relegations after a six-year stay in the Premiership ended with a play-off defeat last season. As St Johnstone prepares for life in the top flight next season, fans are eager to see how they will fare against stronger competition.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ross County&#8217;s <strong>relegation</strong> to League One on May 1, 2026, follows a tumultuous match against Raith Rovers in Kirkcaldy that ended with a football brawl. This marks the first time in 19 years that the Staggies will play in League One.</p>
<p>In a dramatic encounter, Ross County initially took the lead with Kieran Phillips scoring in the 16th minute. However, Raith Rovers equalized through Innes Cameron in the 76th minute before Jack Hamilton put them ahead. Jayden Carbon briefly leveled for Ross County during stoppage time, but Josh Mullin&#8217;s penalty sealed their fate.</p>
<p>This relegation represents back-to-back drops for Ross County, who were also relegated from the Premiership last May after losing to Livingston in the play-off final. The team struggled throughout the season, managing only six league wins since January.</p>
<p>The match concluded with tensions flaring as Akil Wright was sent off for his involvement in the post-match brawl. The chaotic ending highlighted the players&#8217; frustrations over a disastrous campaign.</p>
<p><strong>Key statistics from the match:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Final score: Raith Rovers 3 &#8211; 2 Ross County</li>
<li>Kieran Phillips scored at the 16-minute mark</li>
<li>Innes Cameron equalized in the 76th minute</li>
<li>Josh Mullin converted a penalty after Declan Gallagher&#8217;s foul</li>
</ul>
<p>Looking ahead, Stuart Kettlewell&#8217;s future as manager is uncertain. He has hinted at being open to talks regarding his position with the club. As Ross County prepares for life in League One, significant changes to the squad may be necessary.</p>
