How many times do they play eachother in a season?

How can a league containing 12 teams end with each team playing 38 games?

I'm confused.

They play each other 3 times, (33 in total) then the league splits into top half 6 bottom half 6, where they play each other once (5 matches) equalling 38.

PS Come on Celtic!!!!

Ah right.
Cheers.

I am right in thinking they used to play each other 4 times?

You are Dachau!!  Changed about 4 years ago I think.

changed when they expanded the league from 10 to 12 teams.

PS. Come on Rangers! :mrgreen:

I thought Celtic played Rangers 6, 7 or 8 times a year? :-))(

I'm surprised you show an interest in a thread entitled "The SPL" Dell.  

PS Come on Aberdeen.

It should merge with the conference

I like the SPL its end to end stuff, good entertaining football.

Isn't that because of extra games in cups etc?

Ending tonight isn't it?

:chunder:  at the thought of living with a hun.  

I think I hate them more than Oxford at this moment in time.

Great to see Rangers come unstuck again, so that's 2 out of 2 in the last week they've managed to fuck up.  One to go.

Come on the Doonhamers, how I'd love to see "Queen of the South" on the cup come Saturday evening!!!!

Well done to the Tim's!!!!!!!

3 in a row.

Almost as enjoyable as seeing Motherwell pip Hibernian to the uefa cup place  :wink:

Motherwell pipped Dundee Utd for that ages ago, unfortunately Hibs were terribly average this season, we were no where near the UEFA spot, and deservedly so.  I suppose that's what happens when you raise decent young Scottish stars of the future and they get poached by the old firm, year after year.

I wonder if Steven Fletcher will make that move to Real Madrid that being mooted?  I bet he won't be playing for Hibs come August!

Steven Fletcher is very very good have been impressed with him when I have seen him this season, would be fantastic to see him at Madrid  8)

Well if he has to leave, despite the fact I personally detest Real Madrid, I wouldn't mind seeing him go there.  It'd make a change to him going to keep the bench warm at Ibrox or Parkhead.

Best of luck to the lad whatever he chooses to do, just hope he doesn't make a bug mistake like Garry O'Connor did the other year!

I kinda hope he does go to Madrid. Better to warm their (youth team) bench than rot at Ibrox or Parkhead.

Id still hate the facist cunts mind! :mrgreen:

I assume the Real Madrid chat is a piss take yeah? he's more likely to sign for Real Bonnyrigg.

I like that. :D

Nah, serious. He was watched by real madrid scouts and rated as one of the top ten young prospects in europe apparantly :shock:  But then again, David Goodwillie turned down a move to Barcalona and he hasnt exactly been amazing. Watch out for John Fleck though

Have you heard walter smith was rushed to hospital after the match last night?






He had a quadruple bypass

We'll have to wait and see you jambo bastard!!

And I like it Dave, good one.

Janaage, how can you hate the huns? Its the best website going.

Hearts were utter mince this season, I watched a couple of games on Santa and they were hopeless! Romanov has clearly rocked the boat and something is definately wrong at the club.

Mark Mcghee has been approached to be the new manager, to be honest if I was him I would stay at Motherwell!

Hibs and Hearts need to sort themselves out, a city like Edinburgh should not be forever in the shadow of the soap dodging weggies.

Hibs did ok really, battling for 3rd is the best we can really hope for.

I went to see Hearts twice last season, 4-1 win against Rangers and a 1-1 draw with Celtic! I seem to be their lucky charm, the season I had a season ticket, we won the cup and nearly broke the Old Firm dominance!

the spl is a terrible joke of a league.get celtic and rangers in the prem i say.

What?! And have every major city centre in England trashed on a regular basis?

Keep them behind the wall.......................

When will the SFA fucking sort out these biased fucking referees in Scotland.

Referee 1 QoS 0.  Never a fucking free kick!!  Makes you effin sick.

what makes me sick is just scottish football, its disgusting

Rangers deserve something out of this season

Oh do fuck off you stupid prick.

(Not you Dell, JPCocksmoker).

They already have dell, they won the league cup.  That'll do.  I think QOS deserve something too.

 :evil:  :evil:  :evil:

Sick!!!!

But funny Larwood.

Forgot about the league cup, seems such a long time ago.


Now for all you Scottish football haters - try watching the games they are bleeding entertaining, end to end, obviously lacking of skill but exciting games all the same.

2-0 and good night

No it fucking isn't.He can have the porn if thats what he wants :evil:

For his comment though i'm going to drink all his Scrummy jack :beers:

Oh well happy huns, back to the play off final.

QofS have just scored .... squeaky bum time Rangers :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

2-2

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:
Aceness!

Come  on QOS !!!!!!!

Come on the doonhamers!!!!!

Oh bummer

Have rangers scored :( Whats happened??

I'm listening to Jeff Buckley so am clueless.Well i am anyway!

Yes 3-2

Bugger

Off topic but haven't shitty lost yet?

Still one can of Scrumpy Jack to go!!! (approx 5 mins) :wink:

boo rangers won

Full time Rangers win 3-2, but fair play Queen of the South. 8)

Fair play indeed, to thing Dumfries a small town can get themselves into the Scottish cup final and do themselves proud is brilliant!!!

Well done the hun too, you effin bastards.

rubbish

message to Walter Smith...

"See!!! THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PLAY KRIS BOYD, YOU CUNT!!!!

Smith's negativity has really cost Rangers this season.  I hear Kenny Miller is on his way back to ibrox so I wonder how that'll affect Boyd's chances!

Great! Another striker that cant score goals to replace one that scores for fun :roll:  Bring back PLG! All is forgiven!

I'll keep this within the SPL thread -

Just wanted to say fair play to Mark McGhee from rejecting a move to the Jambos to stay at Fir Park.  Don't really like the fella that much but good to see a manager getting a bout of loyalty and staying at the club.

You see this Will?  Boyd considering his huns future.  Time to leave Krissy boy before you get anymore splinters in your arse!!

Slightly off topic Jan but when is someone going to take a punt on Mcoist as a manager?

Or is he being lined up to replace Smith?

Not sure if McCoist is that interested in managing on his own.  He's obviously a decent enough bloek, seems to be a good laugh, maybe he doesn't want the pressure of being a full time boss - can't blame him if that's the case.

For a 'ger he's not a bad bloke, I really have a lot of time for Ally, legendary player, always gave it 100%.  

But I'm not sure tbh DRS.

Cheers Jan

He seems to have grown up the last few years and one of a limited few who actually talks a bit of sense.I suppose he is Smith’s go between really

Looks to be a similar arrangement to the Gorman/Hoddle partnership to me.
