There is more to the Scottish League than who the Champions are.

There is more to the Scottish League than who the Champions are.

I have heard it said that the Scottish League is just about Celtic and Rangers, just because they win the vast majority of leagues. 

But there is more too leagues than who win the league. 

There is also playing for as high a place in the league as you can achieve. 

There is also qualifying for Europe, beating bigger teams in individual games, avoiding relegation, winning divisional titles, getting promoted from the non-league system. There is also going on cup runs, causing upsets, avoiding upsets, developing players for bigger sides, developing managers for bigger sides, winning cup trophies, winning local derbies, playing entertaining football,  inventing new football ideas. 

There is also the banter between fans, the songs, and t-shirts of the clubs.

There is so much rich history to the Scottish football system. Even if it is normally Celtic or Rangers who win the title. 


In every league there are teams who have never won the league title. Does that make them have no history as a club?  I do not think so. 

There is more to the history of a club, or league, than who wins the title.
