History of Scottish League One

Scottish football league system was first created in 1890, and also the Scottish Football League was formed, which still runs professional football competition in Scotland proudly. As it was founded, the league had a Division 1 and a Division 2. Clubs were getting promotions and relegation between them at the end of each regular season. This is how football competitions ran in Scotland for almost 100 years.

After being given an overhaul in 1975 in the Scottish Football League system, Division One and Division Two developed as the Premier Division and First Division. A Second Division was added to give the country the Third Division. A Fourth Division had been added to the system since 1994.

The Premier Division decided to split away from the rest of the Scottish Football League to form the Scottish Premier League in 1997. This once again switched the landscape of Scottish football, and it ran that way until 2013.

The Scottish Premier League decided to re-merge the SFL to form the Scottish Professional Football League in the following year. As a result, the Second Division became the Scottish League One in 2013.

Competition format of Scottish League One

Each participant team receives three points for a win and one for a draw. No points are awarded for a loss. Contestant teams are ranked by total points, goal difference, and goals scored in a regular season.

The football team that scores the most points in an entire season is declared the champion. When points are the same, the goal difference fixes the winner. The tied contestants compete in a winner claiming playoff games when the goal difference cannot determine the champion.

The champions can directly participate in the Scottish championship and change places with the Championship's last position holder team. The team finished 2nd, 3rd, 4th in League One, and the 9th placed team in the Scottish Championship then entered the two-legged Championship playoff games.

The second-placed League One team plays the third-placed League One team, while the team who finished fourth in League One will play the ninth positioned Championship side. The winners of these tie matches will then competes with each other.

If a League One team playoff victory prevails, that team got a promotion, with the championship team being relegated. If the Championship side is the winner, they then retain their position in the Championship.
