I wasn't in favour of the top 10 setup at first or the summer (non-winter) football either but have come around to the ideas gradually.
Reasons for top10:
- top 12 already struggling so less top teams might be easier to maintain.
- small teams with crap ground getting promoted (e.g Monaghan) then relegated & being replaced by thr same (e.g.Dublin City, Drogheda, Athlone etc... etc...)
- we can't maintain 22 clubs (now 21) so more ain't the solution)
Summer footie:
- weather for January speaks for itself
- better pitches aides the more skillful player
- mid season euro games can only improve results - if city played inter-toto in November i think everyone would fancy us to easily beat Metalurgs.
Interestingly you'll find no 1st division team/support support the top 10 .
