Andy groundhopper Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Let's go backwards to make progress, regionalise the lower divisions giving more derbies, less travelling etc. Leagues of say 10 or 12 giving 6 months of football, evening kick offs would attract decent crowds ? Amazed both the English and Scots Prem divisions 'stuff you' attitude - do clubs really aspire to be part of the circus ? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifespud Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 There’s not a chance they will go for more than 14 in the Premiership imo. And rather than anoint ICT it should be a coin toss for the ‘play off’ spot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they all play in one big league cup group, twice, that's 16. That makes 38, the same as now. SORTED! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 A 16-team league in a “play twice, split, play twice” format would solve the current issues around the split. Everyone would have the same number of home and away games each season, and everyone would play everyone else the same number of times in their own section. The biggest issue is the extra 6 games that would bring about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
