the professional sets ups in Scotland are national leagues
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_football_league_system
we have regional leagues under this set up in a pyramid
Highland
Lowland
There were no Scottish National leagues during the war...only regional
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1940–41_in_Scottish_football
“Between 1939 and 1946 normal competitive football was suspended in Scotland. Many footballers signed up to fight in the war and as a result many teams were depleted, and fielded guest players instead. The Scottish Football League and Scottish Cup were suspended and in their place regional league competitions were set up. Appearances in these tournaments do not count in players' official records”
Claim as many titles as you want to make yours self feel better , better start a petition to get the national body to officially recognise regional titles
In the same way 2 sprinters share 1 gold medal in the Olympics if they both post the same time for the 100 metres? Close the thread.
I actually do like Mindy.
Ah ha ha...
The point is Paula, we haven't claimed those league titles. Because the circumstances dictated that it wouldn't be fair to do so. A global disaster was happening and millions of people were dying so football was an afterthought.
So we sit at 54 instead of 63.
It's called integrity mate.

You can’t claim something that’s not recognised
As stated in the links, regional titles are not recognised...hard to make a claim then eh
That’s actual reason, rangers don’t list them as they are not recognised honours ...
Anyway , I’m watching Scotland v West Germany , Mexico 86
we were a good team back then but still failed !!!

Eamon Bannon !!!
Souness never got going in that tournament, he should have bossed It
That’s something they can’t comprehend. 6 days on and their beel is escalating.
Generally rules are in place before things happen though. Not put in place by fenians, after it happens, who run the show. Close the thread.
So you didn't win the league, it was awarded. Thanks for confirming.The title was shared in 1891 ya fud. As per the rules at the time.
The 2019/20 league hasn't ended as per the rules. It's an illegitimate title.
Much the same as the war year titles.
Although in saying that... the only year the league was stopped short, 1939, the league was called null and void, with Rangers at the top.
Null and void is "unworkable" these days though.
Apart from anywhere else but Scotland!
What did the rules say about ending 2019/20 early?
Ask the members
Don't be a hypocrite all your life

More to do with there not being an official division to play in, actually.Ah ha ha...

Counting unofficial regional leagues and not counting official 2nd 3rd and championship titles tickles me
Haha haha yev broke them Mindy
The Americans will be coming next.
Mindoid will definitely be getting 'bitty' later!
Makes a change from 'Uncle Declan' climbing under the Aiden McGeady duvet!
