Its Macron, and this season it wont be a total rush job, so I've got high hopes.
Is the problem not Macron but who picks the kit?

Not just boot! [emoji6]
Absolutely delighted that Macca is coming in as a coach. Total pro, not afraid to boot people's balls and has the respect of most of the squad already. The Yin to Davidson's Yang.0 -

When is GTF Day?

Nothing worth talking about today. Just Martin O'Neill reminiscing about the good old days.

Is St Mirren home stripes on the back? Would be ruined if one colour.

Why dont we just keep Dundee United down, I mean they didnt actually win promotion.
Thats my prediction for Budges next move.

We may as well have a American style east/west conferences.
6 teams in each play each other 4 times plus teams in the other conference twice. 32 games then top 2 from each enter championship playoffs.
Sorry, I thought we were just naming things that would never get voted through.4 -

I think both systems have their pros. Neither would be particularly disastrous.
I think the main problem for 14 is the timing of the split. Would be mid January & would only need a few weeks of bad weather to delay the whole season.
We had a game called off in october this year that never got a date because there were no dates available until possibly after the split in March. How is that going to work for January.
I'd prefer trying a 16 team league with a later split but that isnt even being considered.

I heard someone say the colts teams could pull players in from the 1st team squad when they want?
Surely they would be 2 seperate teams & could only change squads at the transfer window.

I wonder if they would suggest a certain number of games to be completed (22?) then if not null & void, PPG if criteria met.
In Baseball after 5 innings the result stands even if game not completed.Would guess they will add the PPG approach explicitly into the rules from next season onwards.1 -
Forget reconstruction, have we decided what happens if we can't complete next season?
Surely it's better to have this decided before we start so that we know what happens rather than another vote.3 -
For games that are on sky i have in the past used Now TV, £9,99 for a Day, £14.99 a week or £33.99 a month for access to all Sky Sports rather than a subscription.

A 13 team top league is the obvious answer, promote 1 team in from each division & relegate noone. This makes room for one of Kelty or Brora.
Does mean 2 teams getting relegated next season. Also 1 team would be automatically relegated from League 2. Everything else would remain the same.
Maybe use average points for the extra relegation so this season still counts?

Are we going to rename the leagues? That might be a plus point.

Next season will be shorter but I don't see how 14 can work in a normal year? Split would need to be mid-January?
Just takes a couple of weeks of snow & the whole season is messed up.
We had that Rangers game postponed in October & couldn't find a date when the split was at the end of march.0 -
Is stopping relegation & promoting 1 team to each division to produce a 13-10-10-10 an option?
For 1 season of course.

The 12-10-10-10 is clearly the better than any 14 team option.
We may need a reduced season whenever we can start?
22-27-33 games then start season 21/22 as normal? But then the 22 wc starts causing issues?0 -

So is this right?
26 games before the split, not like current set up which is 33.
Based on this season, the split would be 3 weeks after the winter break (mid Feb)
And there would then be 14 games in the split instead of the current 5.
Imagine being safely in 7th spot, you basically have 14 meaningless games - i.e one third of the fixtures being effectively pointless.
What is the point????
I think the main point might be fitting all the games in. Just takes a couple of week of bad weather & theyll struggle to get the games played by end of January.

Heard a rumour that 12-12-18 could be back on the cards with the 8-8-8 split in the top 2 divisions.
All other ideas have little chance of getting voted through by the premiership teams. Hearts may have to take relegation but this would give them the best or easiest way to get promoted next season.
The problem with that system was the middle 8 going back to 0 points at the merge point.
Also a team confirmed in the bottom 4 playing a title contender just before the split would have no incentive to win as they would lose the points anyway.

It seems pretty obvious that we'll finish this season this year then play a summer season next year.

Let's just use the pools panel to complete the season!

Is there any point in the post split fixtures if it's closed doors?
Get to 33, play the playoffs & cup?1 -

League Reconstruction 20/21 season
in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Posted
1 year only, 4 conferences of 11 (kelty & Brora included) split based on season just ended, 3 premier teams in each (rangers & Celtic must be in the same one for TV).
Top 3 in each conference qualify for premiership 21/22.
