Talk:1954–55 Liga Alef

1954–55 Liga Alef

edit

1954–55 was the last season of Liga Alef as the top tier of Israeli football, and wasn't the first season of Liga Leumit. Therefore, 1954–55 Liga Leumit should be changed to 1954–55 Liga Alef (whilst 1954–55 Liga Alef was renamed to 1954–55 Liga Bet, as should be).

Liga Leumit started at the 1955–56 season and not in 1954-55. Liga Bet was the second tier up until 1954-55. Israeli newspapers (in Hebrew) from that time proofs that fact:
