No, just reorganize it so that 4 teams are relegated at the end of the season from Blue Square North/South instead of 3. To keep the balance, have the teams in Northern and Southern Premier League and SPL playoffs play each other in a bigger play off game instead of keeping the playoff system local.Grenade wrote:
Not possible as they would need to displace another club in the middle and it would be unfair on the other clubs behind them. To play in English football they need to start right from the bottom.

Celtic would obviously need success in Europe to support themselves, but if they did, I see no reason why they couldn't improve. There is an upper barrier on how much they could improve yes, but the point stands.

Really? And these are high standard leagues with reputable success in Europe yes?
Thanks RR. Likewise with La Liga, Serie A and Ligue 1.Dan wrote:Lu❣s Suarez wrote:Lots of clubs in Europe monopolize their leagues and are still fine.

I was thinking more on the lines of Steuea in Romania in the 90's, Red Star in Serbia in the 90's, Widzew Lodz in Poland in the 80's and part of the 90's, Sparta Prague in the 2000's, Kobenhavn in the 2000's, Ajax for most of history, probably a mention from Russia, Ukraine, Belgium and Greece as well.

If Rangers were to leave, Celtic would be worse off for it. Yeah, they might win a few more SPL titles, but who is seriously going to want to move to a league such as that?

What you are saying is completely subjective though.
Celtics chairman has already quashed the suggestion that Celtic would be worse off without Rangers
The league would be more competitive without Rangers. Their financial doping has resulted in the demise of Scottish football. The idea that it would be worse in a league that would immediately present more opportunities for success is patently absurd. It would present other teams with the chance to compete. This is the perfect opportunity to rejuvenate our league.

That's fine, but so far you haven't offered anything substantial at all in the way of a rebuttal.
