The SPL have agreed to go for a 10 team Premiership and a 12 team Championship. How much did they have to bribe the diddy teams to get them to agree to that http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/scot_prem/9359765.stm
So it's basically switching round the existing format Not going to change a single ****ing thing Premiership and championship <fannies>
Give it 5 years and the ****s wil be changing it again, when crowd numbers collapse, and the Sky bubble bursts.
Mick, do you think that FIFA are strong enough to make the turnover/wages rule stick? I'm not convinced that they have the bottle to stand up to the biggest clubs if they band together against it. Even if they do, I am sure the clubs will find some loophole in the system. But I still think the 10 team league is not the way to go. How will they go about moving from 12 to 10 teams? Will they just relegate the bottom 2, or have play-offs, so that at least one of them gets a chance to stay up?
Mick, in order for Scottish football to take advantage of worldwide changes we had to position ourselves in a manner that our game could grow. This ten team pish is nothing more than greedy fat chairmen seeing the best way to bleed money out of the fans for the next 3 years. They did a fans survey and asked Sky what they preferred. You'd think they would go with the fans since we are by far the biggest investors to the game, but they went with the option that keeps Sky happy. Short sighted fannies. I'll give it until 2020 at the latest. Rangers, Celtc, Hearts & Hibs should start on the Atlantic League proposal now and work our ticket out of this ****e. I would include Aberdeen and Dundee United in that but **** them, Steven Thompson is a ****er and Abersheep deserve everything they get.
Well said Frank. Especially the Aberdeen bit. I ****ing hate them, just because Fergie brought them success in the 80's they still think they're a European force and a big club ****e, part-time fans who cared more about fighting ****s and what clothes they wore than the football on the pitch. An owner who can't wait to build flats over their stadium. No trophies for 15 years! Joke of a club with bitter joke fans.
Rangers and Celtic could always join the English championship and let the other teams in Scotland fight amongst themselves?
Be a lot more fun Tank.........Surely if the big four or five clubs were to come out of the SPL........Would Scottish football as we know it finish?
Rangers and Celtic are in terminal decline, unless there is a power shift at Yoofa then the rich will get richer and the poor get poorer. When clubs are run whilst hundereds of millions of pounds worth of debt, and still alowed to spend squillions on piss poor players, then it shows what is wrong with the game. Darren Bent for ÃÆÃâÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¡ÃÆÃââââ¬à ¡ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã24m! That **** is the black Kris Boyd. Anyway, I'm off to Moderate
