| 1. Author: Stanza Date: Sun 15th Feb 2026. 21:08 Scottish Premiership football is highly predictable most seasons, particularly at the top. For most clubs, just being in the Premiership Top Six post-split can be considered a success. In the 27 seasons of the SPFL, these are the clubs who finished in the Top Six. For two or three it is taken for granted, for a few it is at least expected, for a few more it is aspirational, for some it is very occasional while for most it is unattainable. Celtic 27 Rangers 23 Hearts 20 Aberdeen 16 Hibs 13 Motherwell 12 Dundee Utd 11 St Johnstone 10 Kilmarnock 9 Dundee 5 Dunfermline 3 Inverness 3 Livingston 3 Ross County 3 St Mirren 3 Partick Thistle 1 If this season`s Top Six remains unchanged (probable) then add 1 for Celtic, Rangers, Hearts, Motherwell, Hibs - and of course Falkirk. _________________  Support Dunfermline Athletic Disabled Supporters` Club (DADSC) when you shop online with one of 8000 firms: http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/dadsc[Reply |

| 3. Author: Stanza Date: Mon 16th Feb 2026. 22:03 In the above list, every club below Dundee Utd (*) is either already out of the Premiership or in serious danger of relegation from it, showing how fleeting success can be for all but the very top clubs. (*) Aberdeen or Dundee Utd could also be in trouble if they have a bad run. I remember Hibs being 7th at the split and being relegated. _________________ Support Dunfermline Athletic Disabled Supporters` Club (DADSC) when you shop online with one of 8000 firms: http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/dadsc[Reply |

| 5. Author: OzPar Date: Tue 17th Feb 2026. 06:00 I would imagine that if you were to replicate this survey in most European top leagues, you would produce similar results with a couple of clubs hogging the limelight. I would think Holland, for example, would show Ajax and Feyenoord as dominating that scene. Even down south, in recent years, Liverpool and Man City were beginning to dominate in much the same way as Celtic and Rangers do in Scotland. But this season has seen the likes of Arsenal and Villa break that dominance. Is this season an outlier, or is a change of the guard underway? Reply |
| 6. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Wed 18th Feb 2026. 02:46 I think you meant Ajax and PSV. PSV have won it 11 times since 2000 whereas Feyenoord have won it twice. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else. Reply |
