Norgethistle Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Did you meet John Brown in the pub? I wish it had came from a bampot like him, but no SFA to impement league reconstruction and remove the SPL, if you dont join you dont get a licence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Kerr Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 So where do TTFKAR fit in to that structure this coming season? If it's the bottom league that still keeps them out of the Land of Milk and Honey for two years. Is that some sort of compromise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillresigned Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Is there no end to the cynicism of the SPL/SFL/SFA, as it seems to be the case that even if we vote against accepting SEVCO, into the First Division they'll just go ahead and change the rules any way? Just what is the point of it all, I'm sick and tired of the whole circus, if they cannot run football properly then the whole WWF edifice can come crashing down, without my support I may add.

How would a 14 team SPL2 work? 7/7 split in the 'second half' of the season? Gives Newco some opportunities for friendlies with Celtic <_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Kerr Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 6/8 split I'd wager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigesige00 Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 League reconstruction must be in the fair way. I believe that the new merged league should be 3-divisions/48-teams. 6 new clubs should be invited -- Spartans, Cove Rangers, Edinburgh City, East Kilbride Thistle, etc. 2 teams are relegated from the 1st Division and 2nd Division. There must relegation from the 3rd Division. The 16th team of the 3rd Division is automatically relegated. The 15th team play the winners of the East of Scotland League, West of Scotland League, and Highland League. Is there anyone who disagrees with me?

twinny Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 6/8 split I'd wager. I could understand that in the top tier, but it seems daft having an unequal split in the second tier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would a 14 team SPL2 work? 7/7 split in the 'second half' of the season? Gives Newco some opportunities for friendlies with Celtic That would be 46 games (if the normal season was play each other 3 times) which is too much or 33 games (if the normal season is play each other 2 times) which is not enough. I would suggest play each other 3 times and no split - 39 games. (although that gives a problem with some teams having an extra home game) Edited July 6, 2012 by Dick Dastardly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a quote attributed to Doncaster earlier today - said all the pressure on SFL had to stop - and then the donkey went on to say something along the lines of 'there are still many twists and turns to this story' He also confided that a meeting the other evening (at Hampden?) that league reconstruction was not discussed so it should therefore not be on the table at a vote next week. Can't find the link on where I read it Edited July 6, 2012 by gianlucatoni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
