10menwent2mow Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Aberdeen, Celtic, Dundee Utd, Hearts, Hibs, Kilmarnock, Livingston, Motherwell, Rangers, Ross County, St Johnstone and St Mirren are all back in the title hunt and a mere 23 victories away from clinching the league title if every other game ends up a draw. I think Week 25 is the earliest a team could be confirmed automatically relegated if they lose all their games and everyone else wins every other week. So, won't be much going on in this thread for a while. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 What would happen if every match ended in a 0-0 draw? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rule C36 is a bit confusing as it supposedly covers a tie that involves more than two clubs but then specifies a single play off match involving those clubs at a neutral venue Quote "If the League position between any two or more clubs cannot be determined by application of Rule C35 and their positions in the League at the relevant time have a bearing on deciding which Club is the Champion Club of the League and/or a Division, whether a Club plays its final five League Matches in any Season in the Premiership between the other Clubs in positions 1 to 6 in the Premiership or the other Clubs in positions 7 to 12 in the Premiership, whether a Club is promoted or a Club is relegated to or from a Division, participation in a Play-Off Competition or qualification (or consideration for qualification) for any other competitions, including UEFA Competitions, then the Clubs concerned shall play-off a deciding League Match to determine League position on a date and at a neutral ground as determined by the Board in each case. Such deciding League Match shall be of 90 minutes duration with 30 minutes of extra time and kicks from the penalty mark if necessary in accordance with the rules laid down by the International Football Association Board which will determine the winner. The gross gate receipts (excluding Vat) after deducting expenses shall be divided equally between the competing Clubs. Any Club staging a play-off match shall be entitled to charge, as an expense against the receipts of the match, its necessary match expenses together with a ground facility fee of 20% of the gross gate receipts (excluding Vat). " Which suggests some kind of 12 team multiball chaos 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPFL rule C36 - if they can't work out the league position from the table, then they play a playoffs with extra time and penalties for any league position that matters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 It's worse than that surely. After 33 games they'd have to play a 12 team play-off round robin to determine which teams were in the top six and bottom six. If every post-split game was also 0-0 then they'd have two more 6 team play-off round robins to determine all the relevant places. An extra 16 games for every team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 Yes. It's that time of year again when we can start ruling teams in and out of things. Celtic have clinched a spot in the Top 6 as St Mirren can overtake them pre split but Hibs can't. Well done Ange. Ross County will be out of the title race this weekend if they fail to beat Killie and Celtic beat Dundee Utd. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
