Different sources give different numbers for Liedson's total goals: www.record.pt 24, www.abola.pt 25, www.sporting.pt 26. If someone knows what the right number is, please update accordingly. --Jcmo 22:17, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
[edit] article name
As the name changed again, the article must be renamed, as the "SuperLiga" was part of the sponsoring deal with Galp. However, I'm not particullary fond of renaming to Liga Betandwin.com (as no other leagues are named according to their sponsors: see FA Premier League (currently named Barclays Premiership) or Eredivisie (Holland Casino Eredivisie). So, what should be the name of the article? Primeira Liga (My favourite choice)? Portuguese football first division? I Liga ? wS;✉ 23:32, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
- The name Superliga is maintained. The sponsor changed but now the name Superliga is the equivalent to the English Premier League. Numericals were abolished from the professional competitions in order to differentiate them from the amateur ones. So I Liga or I Divisão would be incorrect. So if one does not want to use the sponsored name (like you and me...) one continues to say Superliga. In an official statement the Portuguese Football Federation says "Betandwin International (BAT) Limited (...) will assume the condition of Institutional Sponsor of the Super Liga". Hapy to have clarified. --Gameiro 03:26, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Benfica points
How can Benfica in 1935/36 and 1936/37 can have 34 points if there were only 14 rounds and a victory was awarded 2 points? 14x2 = 28 = the max possible...--Serte 15:33, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
