Tickets and football trips to the Scottish Premiership

The history of the Scottish Premiership

The Scottish Premiership, the top division in Scottish football, has its roots in the Scottish Football League, founded in 1890. The league has evolved over time and underwent a major change in 2013 when the Scottish Premier League and Scottish Football League merged to form the current Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL). This reorganization aimed to strengthen Scottish football and create a more competitive and economically sustainable league.

The league is known for its intense rivalry, particularly between the two most prominent clubs, Celtic FC and Rangers FC, which have together dominated Scottish football for much of the league's history. These two teams have given rise to the famous Old Firm derby, one of the most passionate and historically charged rivalries in world football. The derbies between Celtic and Rangers are more than just matches; they are cultural and social events that engage fans worldwide.

The Scottish Premiership has also seen many legendary players over the years. Players like Kenny Dalglish, who began his career at Celtic before becoming a star at Liverpool, and Ally McCoist, Rangers' all-time top scorer, are just a few of the names that have contributed to the league’s rich history. The league continues to foster talent and maintains a tradition of passion and commitment at the heart of Scottish football.
