== Wrong title ==

Hi. This article is incorrectly titled. This is not a "Challenge Cup for teams in Scotland", as the current title implies. This is a "Challenge Cup for Scottish Football League teams", as sourced here for the season 2006/07.

I am of the opinion that this article should actually be named Scottish Football League Challenge Cup, with all other redirects leading to it as parent, and so as to keep it in line with the preferred title, gleaned from the League's official website and accessed through the above link. A consensus might be useful on this. Thanks. Ref (chew)(do) 21:36, 17 June 2007 (UTC).

Apparently, Wikipedia naming conventions prefer "the most popularly used title", and not a precise title, so I am striking the call for consensus as unnecessary, as the article appears to be correctly titled under those guidelines. Thanks. Ref (chew)(do) 23:03, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Last win/last final lost

Not sure why we're giving the year that the seasons conclude (i.e., Ross County won the 2006-07 final (in November 2006), so they've been listed as the 2007 winners). - Dudesleeper · Talk 18:24, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Wrong Title

I would dispute that Scottish Challenge Cup is the most pouplarly used title for this competition, more often than not you will see it referred to in the press as Scottish League Challenge Cup, Scottish Football League Challenge Cup (it's proper title) or even SFL Challenge Cup, although within Scotland "Scottish" will often be superfluous and omitted. Given the introduction this season of the SFA Challenge Cup North and South, which compensate for the demise of the Scottish Qualifying Cup, then it seems to me there is agood case to reconsider how this article's title and avoid confusion. - Jamesrpx (talk) 15:03, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
