Excerpt: The 2009-10 Libyan Premier League (known as the Libyana Premier League for sponsorship reasons) is the forty-second edtition of the competition since its establishment in 1963. A total of 14 clubs contested the league, with Ittihad Tripoli the defending champions. This has been reduced from the system of 16 teams that had been in place since the 2007-08 season. The season was scheduled to begin on October 1, 2009, but was later postponed until October 8, 2009. The season was scheduled to finish on May 14, 2010. However, this was later delayed to June 1 due to CAF fixtures and national team commitments. The fixture list was released on 4 September 2009. The league paused for its mid-season break on 13 January 2010, and continued on 28 January 2010. There was another break after Round 16 (19 February - 22 March), due to the national team's fixtures, and CAF competition. Next season, the league will be again reduced, this time to 12 teams. Ittihad secured their 16th top flight title with three games to spare after a 2-0 home win over Najma on May 18, 2010. This was their sixth league title in succession and their eighth in the last nine seasons. Ahly Tripoli were expelled from the league and had their record for the second half of the season expunged on 17 May 2010. Having failed to show for two successive matches in protest at unfair treatment spanning a number of years from the Libyan Football Federation, which was sparked by their 1-2 home defeat to bitter rivals Ittihad, they vowed not to compete in competitions run by the LFF. As a result, they were relegated to the Libyan Second Division, meaning each side would now play only 25 games. Tahaddy became the second side to be relegated on 22 May, after Shat, Olomby, Sweahly and Najma all won their respective matches on that day. Due to their inferior head-to-head record, even a victory against Shat on the final day would not have seen them avoid the drop. Their relegation was confirmed after their 3-1 win over Hilal
