Once you start the 2nd half of the split-season, on the Standings panel the standings will continue to reflect the cumulative standings, but this can be changed via the dropdown in the vicinity of the top left of the panel, where you can choose Overall, First Half, or Second Half standings. Beneath the main standings the team & record of the 1st half winner will be shown, and beneath that the team & record of the 2nd half leader.
That finally got added? I remember bugging Markus and crew about that for years. It must have gotten added during my sabbatical from OOTP.

<GAME day="90" time="1500" away="4" home="1"/>
<SPLIT>
<GAME day="92" time="1500" away="1" home="6"/>
<GAME day="92" time="1500" away="5" home="7"/>

And, in the absence of a "SPLIT" indicator OOTP could simply then split the season at the halfway mark, as it does now.
That's a simple, great way of doing it.

I was thinking of adding a "first_half_close" and "second_half_open" date entries in the header of the schedule file.
