tartofmidlothian Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Wouldn't wish the death of a club on any fan, but many in charge of them have earned a fair amount of schadenfreude. I can see why a quick-fix reform in the summer may have been tricky, but it'll be needed soon. An eighteen team Premiership, an eighteen team Championship, Highland and Lowland below. Governed by a rep from each Premiership team, two to four delegates from the Championship and one from each league below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasavallan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 11 hours ago, ToadKiller Dog said: I would go different 14 team premier (would like bigger but not realistic) 16 or 18 league championship The rest split to regional leagues east n west or north n south , with juniors or others who want in ,gives the ambitious small sides a chance and the dead weights will find a place where the bus fair isn't that bad . Generally agree but having the Premiership/Championship made up of 30 or 32 clubs in total is too many. There are currently only 22(?) full-time professional clubs in Scotland. The top 2 leagues should be limited to full-time clubs, below that a pyramid system on a regional basis. Promotion from the lower leagues is by invitation and only if the club goes full-time. There should be no mandatory relegation from the higher full-time pro-league to the lower part-time leagues. To maintain the 4 OF money spinners each season, the Premiership cannot realistically exceed 12 teams so a Championship of 10 teams based on current numbers of full-time clubs. As has been mentioned already, there are too many lower league clubs that play to 200+ spectators and rely on weekly lottery draws to finance the club.

Randy Marsh Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Scotland should copy Holland. Have two pro leagues. I dont think Promotion/Relagation to and from level two is in place at the moment as around 5 clubs have gone bust in recent years. These clubs were unable to stay professional so the top clubs filled the voids left by playing thier youth sides in the 2nd tier. Basically anything below level two is considered amatuer and a club winning the league would have to prove they have the resources in place to become professional to be eligible for promotion. Scotland should role out something similar. Top league of 14 with 2nd tier of 18/20 including colt sides to make up the numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These same clubs have stood in the way of changes that would have benefitted them and the whole sport. Winning those cups and leagues would still be more satisfying than sitting in the bottom division of a league that stymies the progress of progressive teams and clubs with the potential to move up and add more value to the sport. Same with the top division, shite like St Johnstone needing their stadium filled by Perth residing OF fans so they can afford to pay Stevie May and the like. Utter pish as a product.

When we were in administration and on the brink, I'm pretty sure every visiting team that could muster up an away support were happy to sing about us going bust etc. Other supporters glee at our position was fairly evident back then. Now we are in a position that has seen us majorly harmed, both on the pitch and financially, due to the votes of other clubs. Again, supporters from other clubs are quite happy to see Hearts suffer. No sympathy from me. Why don't the fans of other clubs that get in to financial difficulties start raising funds and attempt to save their club.

Without the structure in the SPFL they would be unviable businesses.

Glamorgan Jambo Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 There should be a proper pyramid in Scottish football and leagues should be managed according to where they sit in the pyramid. The issue of too much power being vested in the hands of the two big Glasgow clubs and the long tail of semi professional clubs should be addressed. East Stirling survived for years because there was no mechanism for removing them from the league. As soon as they went down they carried on going down and won’t be back in League 2 anytime soon. Donald Finlay was correct when he said League 2 clubs were terrified of Brora and Kelty Hearts. There should be a proper executive body running the leagues not a bowling club committee with an overpaid chief executive and chairman paying too much attention to what their backers say and not enough to what is the right thing (today’s decisions on different sub numbers per league and competition were utterly absurd).

newbie Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I suspect there’s a lot more to play out in the wake of the pandemic before we can even plan with any certainty for the upcoming Championship season, never mind revamping the leagues for the future. There are many negative comments in this thread about the perceived unfairness of a Brechin City or Albion Rovers having a vote of equal power to our own, and that of the top Premiership clubs. I’d wager these comments were made by individuals, with no sense of irony, who rightly decry the unfairness of the stranglehold held by the big two, Celtic and Rangers*, both in terms of influencing every decision of the football authorities and maintaining their endlessly boring duopoly regards top-league titles. Celtic/Rangers* fans complain that their clubs are stifled by a severe lack of domestic competition. Bizarrely, they see themselves as fully-qualified candidates for a place in the grotesquely over-rated, over-financed and hopefully over-soon EPL, with elevation to the elite status of Barcelona, Real Madrid or Bayern Munich waiting for them beyond. They seem oblivious to the fact that football is now first and foremost about driving money into FIFA and UEFA’s coffers and it serves those bodies well to look after those elite leagues and clubs while largely ignoring lesser leagues and clubs such as our own. Celtic/Rangers* are seemingly oblivious to the fact that they treat the other 40 SPFL clubs with the same degree of disdain as Celtic/Rangers* are treated by the elite level they aspire to. That is why I would urge caution before we ourselves treat the lower league clubs as dispensable just because we’re used to being the third biggest club in the country. Every club has its place and a right to an equal vote. Or if you think smaller clubs having equal voting rights to be unfair, would you prefer that Celtic and Rangers* merit 10 voting rights each, to our one, for example? Nobody except Celtic or the old Rangers has won the top-flight league title for 35 years, and there’s little sign of things changing anytime soon. Even when one of the duopoly died an entirely self-inflicted death following a decade of industrial-scale cheating, our myopic football authorities concocted a secretive five-way agreement in which they’ve agreed to treat Charles Green’s new club as if it was the old defunct club, mostly for the purposes of broadcasting and other commercial contracts. Any thought given to the prospect of Hearts, Aberdeen, Dundee United or others replacing dead Rangers at the top of the tree, eventually winning league titles in the fullness of time? Don’t be ludicrous! The one and only financially viable option dictates that we must suck up at least another 35 years of the same tedious outcome because broadcasters insist on 4 Celtic/Rangers* games per season. They might as well write into the regulations that neither of the gruesome twosome can be relegated, or even finish in the bottom six!! Just a reminder that every SPFL club, including ours, signed up to this perpetual mediocrity, subservience and feeding off scraps and crumbs. Shame on all of us.

There's no comparison between fans of a professional, competitive club like Hearts (or Hibs, Aberdeen, etc) complaining about the stranglehold of the OF and at the same time complaining about PT, practically amateur, clubs with zero ambition to progress (or any hope of doing so) having a say in important decisions that affect the futures of professional clubs, such as the recent votes on ending the league and reconstruction. All clubs should be full-time with full-time professional set-ups if they want to be in the main professional league and have a say in how that league is run and structured. Everyone else can still have a chance of doing that through the pyramid, but they can't get access unless they become a full-time professional club. Then they get a vote on things that affects the future of professional football clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
