Play-offs proposed

[garykelly]

Farcical. How about running the league professionally, throwing out convicted criminals running clubs, a proper one hour dedicated football programme at a decent hour, a 10 team premier and proper facilities just to start?

The play offs in 93 were a joke. A salary cap while a good idea would never work. Think of what the PFAI would say.


KOH

exactly let's get the league up to proper standards first and go from there.

How about introducing a salary cap for those goons in Merrion Sq. ?????????????

Absolutely. A salary cap for the Mongs who have football in the halfpenny place first.

Every consultants first job is to figure out what their client wants to hear.

Stupid idea. Play-offs after a league don't make sense and lead to less credible winners.

Which might explain why nobody in the GAA takes their League seriously..

Maybe this is a new tactic to allow Shels to win the league.

The team that finishes first will play Shelbourne every year and the winning team will be considered for the league title after all other avenues of getting Shels into the Setanta Cup have been explored.

over here in the states they have playoffs (obviously )

It's an absolute joke. Last season there were 10 teams in the league and EIGHT of them made the playoffs!!! There's absolutely nothing to play for. Once you're better than 2 teams then you're there. The quarter finals are two legs, so ho home advantage, the semis are one game so better league position gives home advantage and same for final.

It's a joke of a system.

On a side note, the team from Salt Lake City (one of the 2 new teams in the new 12 team league), have decided to call themselves Real Salt Lake (as in Real Madrid). Stupid!

how about a real football name name like eh.... salt lake city football club?
slat lake is full of religious weirdos anyway
