I'd love to see someone conjure up an algorithm that can make 5 or 10 divide equally into 36. I think I need to see exactly how they intend to make this work before I opine further.

36 teams over two leagues, not one. I've read 20 in first league but also 18 in a second league so it's either 20 + 16 or 18 x 2. The five home and five away will be seeded to ensure the top clubs are protected and only face the lower clubs in the league format, thus ensuring (as much as possible) their safe passage to the next round.
