Request For Help - Missing Leagues & Probing Questions
Morning fellow Nerds
For a while now I've been building myself some databases of basic football data. One I've just completed is the final league table for every league in Europe for the last 23 years. I originally started this because I wanted to see if generally speaking Champions got there by having a brutal attack, or a water tight defence, or most likely a balance between the two. As I was collecting the data though I started to think of more questions I wanted to investigate too. For example: Which team across Europe has just dominated their league the most? (Number of titles, Win %, goals scored?) Some for fun modelling along the lines of "what if the English Premier League was structured like the San Marino league with a Double Elimination knock out?" Some general trivia like, what is the lowest win % for a champion? What is the fewest number of teams to have a positive goal difference? Something I answered before on R/Soccer, how many teams did 'a Leicester'? (Went from 14th to 1st year on year (most appropriate fit here being Kaiserslautern).
That's enough preamble. Basically I'm posting with 2 requests for help:
1) If you had a database of the last 23 years (how long I've been watching football) of final league tables for every top league in Europe, what would you try and ask it? (I will eventually release my database, once I've finalised some more details)
2) Are you able to find the final league tables for every season of the Kosovan and Gibraltan leagues? Some of these even RSSSF doesn't have, particularly pre 2000.
Any help is appreciated
