The Irn-Bru Scottish Football League First Division Championship is the highest division of the Scottish Football League and the second highest in the Scottish football league system. The division contains ten teams and each year the top team is promoted to the Scottish Premier League, subject to meeting the stadium criteria. The bottom club is automatically relegated and the second bottom club goes to an end of season play-off with the second, third and fourth placed clubs from Division Two. The teams play each other four times with three points for a victory and one point each for a drawn game.

The future Three member clubs (Clyde, Dundee,and Livingston) are proposing a restructuring system, which would see the current First Division teams "break away" to form a second tier to the Scottish Premier League (SPL)[2] These plans are at a very early stage and are facing strong opposition from lower-league clubs and Scottish Football League bosses[3]. The SFL claimed that the proposed "SPL2" would break a settlement agreement that was reached when the SPL was first created in 1998.[4] However, the Scottish FA ruled that adding a second tier to the SPL would not breach the previous agreement, which covered such items as promotion, relegation and parachute payments.[5]
