Hong Kong First Division League
Encyclopedia
Hong Kong First Division League is the top division football
league in Hong Kong
which was established in 1908, the oldest in Asia
. It does not affiliate to any football leagues in the People's Republic of China
.
Another relegation exception was made to South China Athletic Association
during the 2006/07 season. The Hong Kong Football Association
approved a request from South China to remain in the first division on June 14, 2006. The reason for exception was not disclosed. The public believed that this application was allowed probably because South China has a long history in the First Division League and it would otherwise be humiliating for the club to be relegated to the Second Division. Another reason is that other football clubs rely on the large fan base of South China to generate revenues. Relegation would have resulted in a lose-lose situation for all sides.
