The British Home Championship that has been stopped on 1984 is back. Due to the early exit of European Championship. England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland have been calls to reintroduced the forgotten league on next summer.

The Format and rules

Each team played the other three once each (making for a total of three matches per team and six matches in total). Generally, the teams would play either one or two matches at home and the remainder away, with home advantage between two teams alternating each year (so if England played Scotland at home one year, they would play them away the next).

A team received two points for a win, one for a draw and none for a loss. From these points, a league table was constructed and whoever was top at the end of the competition was declared the winner. If two or more teams were equal on points, that position in the league table was shared (as was the Championship if it occurred between the top teams). In 1956, all four teams finished level on points and for the only time the Championship was shared four ways. From the 1978-79 Championship onwards, however, goal difference (total goals scored minus total goals conceded) was used to differentiate between teams level on points. If goal difference could still not separate them, then total goals scored was used.
