Yid_in_Exiile Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) So long as there are NO COLTS anywhere in the mix, I can live with what they come up with. If two or three part time Clubs are up and then automatically stay up for the 2020/21 season then that would obviously be an added benefit to Ayr. Can't see how 44 league games could possibly work with three other National Cups, but that is detail.

Frank Grimes Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Unlike many, I’m not against Colt teams in principle I like the idea of young players playing games that would be a hell of a lot more competitive than what they’re currently playing However, because this so is clearly in the pipeline to benefit two clubs and two clubs only it should be met with the cynicism it so richly deserves GTF 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sold. In all seriousness, though, it's hilarious how stupid they think we all are. "Two colt teams from Premiership clubs" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RandomGuy. Posted May 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2019 How many fucking times are they going to try this, they've already had about four votes on it laughed out by the lower league clubs so are now trying another different approach Why are they even getting these opportunities to vote on it? It looks fucking decades to get a pyramid set up, yet as soon as Rangers and Celtic want something, theres a vote every month. 39 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Brian Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Falkirk get relegated...Two days later they are talking of a twelve team league 12 teams I wouldn't be against, but as with everyone else pandering to the two arse cheeks can get straight in the sea 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Fifer Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 The championship is the most exciting eague in the country, so it does not surprise me that those in charge want to do something to rip that blueprint up. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEADOWXI Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 12 teams OK 44 games probably too much - would need a split similar to Premiership Colts - Doncaster go f**k yourself 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Have some faith in Magic Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 12 team league okay if both of these are part of it: No youth teams Scrap the Challenge cup. Neither of these things will happen so get it tae...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Brian Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 So what is going to be the trade off in the negotiation for this? An extra promotion spot from the championship to premiership, or extra prize money 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extra promotion spot from the championship to premiership, or extra prize money Neither, I'd imagine, exact same as their apparent proposal to League two sides. They tried to claim theyd buy tickets for the games so it was a sell out, even if they didn't then sell the tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 You always see folk hit out with the "But Spain, Germany and the Netherlands have them" patter, but you never hear of the shite countries that I assume also use B teams.Can anyone name them in order to aid the collective P&B argument?

LeodhasXD Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 12-12-18 I'm all for but colt teams are the giant turds that won't flush. We've blooded loan players all season and it's been an unmitigated success as it has been in the last few years. Introduce colt teams and those loans won't necessarily happen and bearing in the mind no fan in Scottish football really wants to watch the colts as shown by the challenge cup, sincerely GTF with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkirkfan6871 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 They know if Queens go down with Falkirk it’s bad news for the tv deal and crowds. 12 teams makes perfect sense.

Have some faith in Magic Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 They can't even get the relegation bit in the transition season right Surely at least have a play off between bottom of championship and the team that comes third in division 1. There needs to be a threat of relegation from the league. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
