DoonTheSlope Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 League reconstruction would be ok in my eyes if Hibs rejected the chance to go up. We went down on merit so we should go back up on merit. If they said it would take effect from 2016/17 or whenever then that's different but to push it through just to throw The Rainjurrs in with that other mob then Scottish Football would never get another penny off my dough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenfrewBlue Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 It's amazing how many Non-Rangers fans are banging on about this. Nobody is suggesting this as a serious possibility and quite frankly I'd Hope even if it did happen it would be in a season or twos time to allow proper consultation and for them to actually produce some rules for a wee change. Maybe your frothing madness can be dialled back a bit, at least till after Sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dipped flake Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 there is 0% chance of league reconstruction for next season. Even to get it in place for the season after next, the decision would have to be taken in the next 60 days. As nobody seems to agree with what size the leagues should be I just can't see it happening at all for years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robroysboy Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 The SPFL's sporting integrity would be severely damaged if this was made to happen. The ladbrokes £3 million pound sponsorship deal is I understand not void if both old firm clubs are not in the SPFL. Looks like ladbrookes may have gambled and lost if THE rangers fail to overturn Thursday's defeat at ibrox. How ironic. A bookie may loose.

Bristolhibby Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 If not for next season then definitely season after. No doubt in my mind. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHTOWER 1314 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Reconstruction will defo happen at the end of next season and doncaster admitted as much when ladbrokes was confirmed as league sponsor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toepoke Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 As long as it's not thon 12-12 to 8-8-8 guff, I see Gordon Smith's been going on about it again in the papers. I haven't seen anything proposed yet that's an improvement on what we have, especially now there's play-offs for the Premiership. If it was up to me however we'd have a straight 16 team league and a 30 game season. A shorter league campaign might make things a bit more competitive at the top of the table. As has been mentioned the spare weekends could be filled by bringing back the old league cup groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parklife Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 2 leagues of 20. 38 games Three up, three down. Keep it simple. J Don't like it. You'd get teams going to Celtic park and getting absolutely humped. Would be embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASTA Mick Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Don't like it. You'd get teams going to Celtic park and getting absolutely humped. Would be embarrassing. Eh? That already happens. I bigger league would make it easier for teams like Aberdeen to challenge Celtic. I'd maybe go with an 18-team league so there is room for a winter break.

As has been mentioned the spare weekends could be filled by bringing back the old league cup groups. I actually really like the 12-12 to 8-8-8 idea. Probably make very little difference to the top 8 - play each other 4 times ? So what, at least it's not 3. The groups of 8 guarantee more interest for more teams right to the end of the season.

I think if Cowdenbeath and Alloa we're going to Celtic park, we'd frequently get double figures. I think 16 is optimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan Blackheart Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Reconstruction should be combined with a move to summer football. However, as the powers that be cannot see further than the end of their noses, it won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if Cowdenbeath and Alloa we're going to Celtic park, we'd frequently get double figures. I think 16 is optimum. That wouldn't be exclusive to Celtic. They're get humped at Aberdeen, Dundee Utd, Hearts, etc.But as was said, it would break the Celtic stranglehold on Scottish football and would mean that Derbies become a bit more important to fans. Top league- Aberdeen, Alloa Athletic, Cowdenbeath, Dumbarton, Dundee, Dundee United, Falkirk, Hamilton Academical, Heart Of Midlothian, Hibernian, Inverness CT, Kilmarnock, Livingston, Motherwell, Partick Thistle, Queen Of The South, Raith Rovers, Ross County, St Johnstone, St Mirren. Lower league - Airdrieonians, Albion Rovers, Annan Athletic, Arbroath, Ayr United, Berwick Rangers, Brechin City, Clyde, Dunfermline, East Fife, East Stirlingshire, Elgin City, Forfar Athletic, Montrose, Morton, Peterhead, Queens Park, Stenhousemuir, Stirling Albion, Stranraer.
