KAZAKHSTAN 1st level alltimetable 1992-2023

Notes: 1997 & 2000: Championship playoff games were needed as the two top teams ended on equal points. 1997: Ulytau and Aktubemunai withdrew after 14 and 22 games respectively. I am not sure but I think they had the rest of the games set as 0-3 against them. 2000: Batyr Ekibastuz withdrew after the first round of matches. The results they achieved were declared null and void as a result of this.  Also, the six points they had deducted for not showing up for two games during the first round of matches were to be of no consequence. 2000: CSKA Kairat Almaty had three points deducted during the 2000-season for non-payment of participation fee. 2003: Esil Kokshetau had 6 points deducted for not paying fines and transfer fees in time. On October 14, 2003 they withdrew due to lack of finances  and all remaining matches were set to 0-3 against them. 2004: Kaisar were expelled from the championship after round 30 for voluntary leaving the field in the match versus Esil Bogatyr and attempting  to attack the referee. All remaining matches were set to 0-3 against them.  2004: FK Astana had three points deducted during the 2004-season for an unsettled debt to FK Rostov (Russia). 2004: Akzhayik were expelled after the last game for repeated rule violations. All remaining matches were set to 0-3 against them. 2008: Astana and Qayrat each had 3 points deducted. 2008: Shakhter had nine points deducted. 2008: Vostok Oskemen were thrown out from the league after round 25 and their remaining matches awarded 0-3 losses. 2008: A golden match was played to decide the championship. In this Aktobe LenTo beat Tobol Kostanay 1-1 (4-2 pen.). The game is counted in the table. 2009: Kazakhmys and Vostok each had 3 points deducted and Kyzylzhar had 7. 2013: Zhetysuhad had 3 points deducted and Akzhayik had 6. 2017: Atyrau had had 3 points deducted and Taraz had 6. 2018: Aktobe had 6 points deducted. 2019: Aktobe had 12 points deducted. 2020: Irtysh withdrew during the season and had all games stricken.     Namechanges: Irtysh prev. Ansat and Traktor. Aktobe prev. Aktubinents, Aktobemunai and Aktobe LenTo. Taraz prev. Fosfor. Astana-1964 prev. Tselinnik, Tsesna, FC Astana, Zhenis, Namys. This club have not played under the name Astana-1964 - which is their current name -  at first level, but I have written that name here so as not to confuse them with FC Astana - which is a merger of Megasport and Kairat.  To complicate things further Astana-1964 played under the name FC Astana when they last played at first level! But they are NOT the same club as the present day FC Astana! Zhetysu prev. Taldykorgan and Kainar. Spartak (Semey) prev. Yelimay. Ordabasy prev. Dostyk. Merger of Tomiris and Zhiger. Ekibastuzets prev. Batyr. Not the same as Ekibastuzets NK which was a merger of Ekibastuzets and Nasha Kompaniya. Okzhetpes prev.
