Season 193 of the S.C.S.L. kicked off as usual with the Summer Cup. The final was a battle of the "Saints" as St Mirren took on St Johnstone. The former club won the trophy for the second time with a 2—0 victory in the final.
In Division 1, Celtic and Summer Cup winners St Mirren started off at a good pace, with Dundee United close behind. The first Old Firm match of the season at Ibrox finished in a 0—0 stalemate and Rangers trailed behind the top three. They soon got into their stride though and by the halfway stage the top two were pulling away from the rest of the field. The advantage was very much with the Celts though as they built up a 7-point lead over their rivals. The return Old Firm match at Celtic Park in the 18th round of matches was won convincingly by the home team by 4 goals to 1. Celtic eventually won the title by a solid 10 points, while Rangers finished second but with strong challenges from St Mirren and Dundee United. St Mirren took third place, whilst a late run of form from Aberdeen helped them into fourth place, ahead of Dundee United. At the bottom, Kilmarnock and Clyde occupied the relegation spots, but will be reprieved due to the increase of the division from 16 to 18 teams from next season.
In the Division 2, Partick Thistle were the form team for most of the season, but they were pipped by Dundee, who had had a disappointing first half of the season, for the title in the final matches. Partick just managed to hold onto second place by a point from challengers Dunfermline and step up to the Premiership along with Dundee. At the bottom, Montrose and Cove Rangers finished in the bottom two but again will avoid the drop due to the increase of the division from 16 to 22 teams from next season.
In the Albion Cup, the Old Firm teams contested the final, which was won by Rangers by 1 goal to nil. The talking point of the competition, however, was the astonishing performance of National League 2 (South) side Caledonian Braves. They progressed to the semi-final, knocking out some big names such as Dundee, Partick Thistle and, most remarkably, Dundee United on the way. They were eventually eliminated by Rangers 5—1 in the semi-final.
