    I'm sooooo glad it was such an exciting league race

    2nd place team only 15 points behind the top team

    The same number of points they were ahead of 4th

    4th - that's the place behind 3rd

    And a whole 48 goals in GD worse off than the top team. That's more than 1 extra goal per game.

    And they were only 6 points better off than 3rd. So they were more than double the distance behind 2nd than ahead of 3rd. And with a poorer GD. And the 3rd team was the one promoted from the wee diddy league last season. So in effect if they had lost one of the games they beat the 3rd team they would have been 3rd themselves.

    I'm sooooo glad it was such an exciting league race. I can't imagine what it would have been like if one team had romped it.

    Not really, the Championship was only won by 11 points.

    And the 2nd/3rd went right to the last kick of the game on the final day.

    Last years diddy league was good sevco coming third in a supposed one horse race.
    Here's hoping they go the way of the original govan **** and go tits up before they can pollute the top league.

    Some seasons it all goes to the last day, others it doesn't. I don't really see your point, unless you're trying to tell us that the league will be a thriller next season when Rangers are in it?

    Apparently no more teams will ever get relegated when the tribute act are in the top flight...

    Sevco fans seem to be getting very c0cky after winning the Ramsdiddy Cup after numerous attempts.....

    It only took them two attempts to get out of the diddy league as well..

    Im sure spending money they dont have will help them next season.

    So Sevco only won the league by 11 points ??...must be a magic manager to win by that margin with such huge resources.
