Robsy1990 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 What's your head to head record vs Celtic? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOMAS1982 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I think when it is like this with the goal differencethe same then it comes down to who won the games played between the two clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 lol, alphabetically. Click the rules tab and look at league sorting, quite sure its like most leagues, points -> goal difference -> results between the 2 teams Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 The rules are: At the end of each season, the club with the most points is crowned champion. If points are equal, the goal difference and then goals scored determine the winner. Cant find what happens if it is still a tie but I suspect it will go to head to head results between the 2 teams, but that could be deemed to be a bit unfair due to the peculiarities of the split fixtures, giving one team an extra home game against the other.

telV7 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 The rules are: At the end of each season . . . For some strange reason, and I could very well be mistaken, but in the situation as with the OP, I always thought that it went to games lost, if points and GD were equal. So given that Celtic lost fewer games than Hearts, Celtic are then the eventual winners Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 ok, it looks like it may be something that has been missed, unless I am misinterpreting the rules, this from The Rules of The Scottish Premier League. Effective 19 December 2011 A6.2.2 At the end of each Season (following completion of all League Matches) the Club scoring the highest number of points during that Season save in circumstances in which Rules A6.3 or A6.4 apply, in which case the higher placed Club, shall be declared the Champion Club of the League ("the Champion Club"). The Club scoring the lowest number of points during that Season save in circumstances in which Rules A6.3 or A6.4 apply in which case the lower placed Club, shall be declared the last placed Club and, subject to Rule A6.2.3 the other Clubs in the League shall be placed accordingly. A6.2.3 The Clubs which form the top half of the League immediately after the 33rd League Match shall occupy the first six places in the League at the end of the Season and the Clubs which from the bottom half of the League, immediately after the 33rd League Match, shall occupy the bottom six places in the League at the end of each Season, and, in the event that any other provisions of the Rules is inconsistent with this Rule A6.2.3, or if any ambiguities are created thereby, this Rule shall take precedence. A6.3 If any two or more Clubs are equal in points at the end of the Season, the higher placed Club shall be the Club with the larger or largest positive goal difference (or the lower or lowest negative goal difference where appropriate). Goal difference shall be determined by deducting the goals conceded from the goals scored in all League Matches played during the Season. In the event of the goal difference being equal, the higher placed Club shall be the Club, which has scored most goals in League Matches during the Season. 12 A6.4 If two or more Clubs have the same goal difference and have scored the same number of goals in the relevant Season and their positions in the League have a bearing on deciding which Club is the Champion Club or the relegation of any Club or qualification (or consideration for qualification) for any other competitions including UEFA Competitions, then the Clubs concerned shall play-off a deciding League Match on a date and at a neutral ground as determined by the Board in each case. Such deciding League Match shall be of 90 minutes duration with 30 minutes of extra time and kicks from the penalty mark if necessary. So unless a playoff game is now scheduled it may be a bug, again if I have understood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

telV7 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Look like he has... . It would be interesting to see if it is in the game, given the OP's situation would be a relatively rare occurrence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolanthustrel Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Just be lucky Rangers had the points deductions or you could have missed the Champions League the same way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustardpower Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 In the league rules page it just says its sorted by goal difference and goals scored and the game has already crowned Celtic as champions. Pretty annoyed really as I conceded some stupid goals which could of made the difference. Maybe I should suggest a name change to AEK Hearts or something. My head to head was actually in my favor as well by a goal. Still, bring on the Champions League!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 worth posting in the bugs forum perhaps if my info was correct? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sthptngomad76 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Thought there was a playoff game programmed into the game in the event of a tie? I remember seeing screenshots of someone's game, with an EPL tiebreaker match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Things Could Get Messi Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 A play off is played in some leagues on FM but that doesn't mean that it has been programmed for Scotland. If its not then this would surely be an oversight by SI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojby Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 That is pretty impressive though to have the same points, goals scored and goals conceded. Whjat are the chances of that happening again!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
