Free Agent

Maybe it's because I had such a nice day up til then but genuinely one of the best sport moments I've ever seen. True goosebump stuff and I'm so pleased for Hibs fans and the club. I don't want to comment on the full time stuff other than to say who cares? It doesn't matter.

Hah! Ha! I like Clyde and it's in reach but that match has 0-0 or low scoring written all over it. I think there'll be goals at Stenny but it's a long time out the house. Talbot is a great day out and like Bankies but it could be very one sided.

I've narrowed this Saturday down to either; Auchinleck Talbot vs. Clydebank Clyde vs. Stirling Albion Stenhousemuir vs. Albion Rovers I can't decide! What would you do!?

Thank you for the feedback, guys. I take it on-board 're: the 18 teams over 16, I just thought you could relegate two teams with enough notice and enough teams voting for it. My big question is to supporters of the likes of Albion Rovers, Stenhousemuir, Elgin City, teams that will likely always be in the bottom 18: how do you feel about a bigger league? Yes it's bigger and has more variety of fixtures but is in all likelihood the only league they'll ever be in, if not relegated. I always hear fans want bigger leagues but do they really in the context above or do they prefer the current four tier set up where they could win League Two realistically although in a ten team league?

Congratulations to the Athletic. I look forward to them enhancing the Championship next season as a replacement for the Alloa Athletic.

Leave it out.

Thanks EP, I liked the 8-8-8 idea at the time too but now wonder if I would after a few years of doing it. I think Grazza's Tier 3 N&S idea is interesting too, a bit outside the box but tackles travel issues and worth exploring too.

Someone who knows the clubs and where they are would probably be better to give you the detail on that mate.

Interesting discussion! To get a realistic solution I think you need to balance what we'd like with not changing too much. So something like this seems possible to me: Premiership - 12 teams - 32 games (h&a, split, h&a) - Two down automatic Championship - 12 teams - 32 games as above - Champions up automatic - 2nd-5th playoffs, winner up - Two down automatic League 1 (needs rebranded) - 16 teams, would understand 18 though. - H&A = 30 games or 34 games if 18 teams. - Champions up automatic - 2nd-5th playoffs as above - Two down automatic Lowland League Premier & Highland League Premier - Difficult to choose numbers for LL. HL talking of dividing in two. TBC. Also difficult to decide members, may need to negotiate some juniors in LL. - Both Champions up automatic. LL East Premier-LL West Premier - Ape the Junior Superleagues below the LL Premier and the District divisiins below. Not much changes for the junior teams which is what hey se to want. - Winner of each promoted to LL premier. HL East-HL North - As above but dividing HL North and East due to geography. - HL talking of diving in two at the minute so perhaps just a HL tier of one below HL Premier. Thoughts? Willing to explain my thinking if you disagree. Cheers.
