Scottish Football League Second Division

From Free net encyclopedia

(Redirected from Scottish Division Two)

Scottish Division Two is the second highest division of the Scottish Football League and the third highest in the Scottish football league system.

The division contains ten teams. The teams play each other four times with three points for a victory and one point each for a drawn game. In the event of two teams finishing with the same number of points, the championship and/or promotion is decided on goal difference. If goal difference is equal too, the team who has scored the most goals wins.

Prior to season 2005-6, the top two teams were promoted to Division One and the bottom two were relegated to Division Three. With effect from 2005-6, there is automatic promotion only for the top team and automatic relegation for the bottom placed team. The teams which are placed 2nd, 3rd and 4th enter into a play-off with the team which is 9th in the First Division, and the team which is placed 9th enters into a similar play-off with the teams which are placed 2nd, 3rd and 4th in the Third Division.
