Antony Paul Gallacher (born 23 July 1999) is a Scottish professional footballer who most recently played for St Johnstone as a left back.
Club career
[edit]Falkirk
[edit]Gallacher joined Falkirk as a graduate from the Forth Valley Football Academy in the summer of 2015, having played for the club's youth teams since the age of 10. He made his debut as a sixteen-year-old[3] in a Scottish Cup tie at home to Fraserburgh on 28 November 2015.[4] He made his first league start in a Scottish Championship match against Dumbarton on 17 December 2016.[5]
In January 2017, he was named as one of the Daily Record's and The Herald's Scottish footballing prospects for 2017.[6] The latter reported that Gallacher had been scouted by Premier League sides Manchester United and Stoke City, as well as Scottish club Rangers.[7]
Liverpool
[edit]On 25 January 2018, Liverpool signed Gallacher after a successful trial for a fee of £200,000.[8][9] Gallacher made his competitive debut for Liverpool on 17 December 2019, starting in a 5–0 League Cup defeat at Aston Villa.[10] Liverpool had decided to play a shadow team in that match due to a scheduling clash with the 2019 FIFA Club World Cup.[10] He featured primarily with the Liverpool U23s in the Premier League 2 U23 league.[11]
Toronto FC
[edit]On 14 September 2020, Gallacher joined Canadian club Toronto FC in Major League Soccer, on a loan until 31 December 2020.[12] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he first had to complete a 14-day quarantine, and then the club had to play out the rest of the season in the United States, due to Canadian travel restrictions, meaning Gallacher did not get to spend any time in Toronto, instead spending the entire time on the road.[13]
St Johnstone
[edit]Gallacher signed for St Johnstone in January 2022, on a contract that is due to run until the summer of 2024.[14] He left the club following the expiry of his contract and is currently a free agent.
International career
[edit]Gallacher has been involved with Scotland at various youth age group levels.[15][16]
Personal life
[edit]Tony is the nephew of Jim Gallacher and cousin of Paul Gallacher, both former goalkeepers.[17]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
