"Out of the Box" thinking!
Just heard Roddy Forsyth on BBC5Live on the proposals for the SPL Next season. Seems a proposal to increase the SPL to 14 teams :confused: , leading to the now infamous split, which will leave 6 in the top section, playing for the title, and a bottom eight, playing for the trapdoor! :eek: Heres the crux: the team who finishes at the top of the section of eight (in effect seventh in the League), will play off over 2 legs for a UEFA Cup spot against the team that finishes third! This, they say will keep all the games attractive for all clubs!
So my proposal now is that the First Division winners play off against the third placed club in the premier for a intertoto spot! Fun or what!! :)
Other Scottish inspired proposals could include:
A Bonus point for every 10 goals scored
Deduct a point for every red card
Deduct a point for every 5 yellow cards
Entry programme into the Setanta Cup for all schoolboy teams, play the bottom of the First Division!! :eek:
All Wacky Ideas welcome, maybe some could bring in paying Punters! :cool:
Happy New Year
