 League Reconstruction

SPFL have put out a statement confirming there would be no reconstruction of Premier League but they will be looking at whether they can reconstruct lower leagues. Surprise surprise.

Discussions next month will revolve around SPFL Championship expanding to 12 or 14, with a new third tier of 16 or 18 teams

said for a few years a 12 team championship should be on the cards, id prefer that over a 14 if it is going to change.

Wouldn`t change the Championship it`s the best league in the country.
The standard could be better but it`s always competitive and very few meaningless games...

"The standard could be better" - that`s the understatement of the year IMO.

Increase the Championship but still only have 1 team go up automatically - crap

Got to protect the elite, too many “big” clubs gone down in the last decade.

Expanding Championship to 12/14 wont make it more exciting as still 3 or 4 league games against same sides. Make it 16 and ditch the split. 30 game season with play offs for promotion/relegation and put in a winter break to protect the pitches.

I’m all for expanding the lower league to 12 teams and the country having 4 leagues of 12….it’s 100% not my preference and doesn’t address the biggest problem for me (playing each team 4 times), but I would prefer the extra 2 over 10.

What about 3 leagues of 14. Split into two leagues of 7 after playing each other twice then play each other twice in the “super 7s”. 38 games a season.
Maybe promote and relegate two teams at the split and also after the super 7s ?

Great, minimum of 4 games against teams again, then draw them in the cups and play them 7 times a year…….how enthralling…..oh add in another 2 in the play offs for 9!

I quite like your idea dunpar but the old firm wouldn`t go for it. I`d like to see 3 leagues but have the 3rd division bigger (18-20) teams to allow more room for extra Highland and Lowland league teams. 4 relegation places to allow 2 from Highland and Lowland teams to come up.

It`ll never happen though even though the larger Championship and 3rd division makes no difference to the Sky Sports teams. Football communism at it glorious best.

Same league cup group, finish first and a best second then get drawn together in the knockout stages to make it 10.
