Archie McSquackle Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 They're phrased in a way that some of them are just guesswork but I managed 7. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I have no idea why the quiz is called "19 years of the Scottish Premiership split" when literally the first question points out that it was introduced 20 years ago.Even if you account for it not happening last season, this is still the 20th season where it has. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry Saint Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 5/10. Which means, appropriately, that I just failed to scrape into the top half. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauloPerth Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Viva la split. 5/10. hearts finishing top six only 5 (?) times out of the last 13 seasons, rangers 6, were impressive stats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afca32 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 The biggest points gap is 30 points achieved by Celtic in 2016/17 rather than 29 in 13/14 as the quiz says. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise it's probably only me but I can't see in what way Scottish football has improved since the splits inception. Or for that matter since the introduction of smaller leagues and playing each other four times a season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am making no grand claims for the split improving Scottish football but it intensifies the excitement at the end of the season, it essentially creates a five game play off for positions at the top and the bottom. These games are more relevant to final places because they are against the teams that are competing with each other. There can be examples when everything is decided before hand in which case the run in would be dull whatever the format was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league structure can affect the entertainment levels provided by a given standard though, and the split does that well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
