Fixed that for you

Steve - thanks for the posts. I went into work this morning not knowing about the game and started the thread from scratch...it was like playing football manager

Rab is right, their reconstruction can never happen without a TV deal which includes Rangers and OF matches. They are trying to sneak a way around it. And agreed, agenda No.2 is to gain control of more then half the 42 clubs. They didnt give a monkeys about the SFL when Rangers werent a member. I have always been a fan of trying 16, 18 or even 20 team top flight but I dont think the numbers is the problem. Aside from those running the game (they are the main problem) the problem isnt 10 or 12 teams in the SPL. The problem is the bordom of repetitiveness. 1 up 1 down is the problem. That way you are playing the same teams every year. The league is over by March. 12-12-18 would work if the SPL had 2 auto relegation places with a play off for a 3rd spot then it makes it far more interesting from the middle half of the league downwards. Div1 will also be more competitive as there is 2 auto places and then the 3rd side gets a play off. - now that is in the interest of ALL teams, sharing the wealth and good for fans but these chairmen wont go for it as they would sense the fear of relegation! Once common sense and doing things FOR the game comes back into it then they will never get an agreement. All they are looking for is guaranteed income and embarrassingly from the club they voted out the league.

Anyone know what it even looks like?

0-3 v Sunderland 0-6 v Liverpool Pardew still only 1 year into his 8 year deal.... Next 3 fixtures: West Ham away QPR away Arsenal home Think they will stay up by the skin of their teeth due to other teams around them having to play each other.

Barrie McKay would have been a shout had he kept playing in his favoured role and then not got injured. We have some promising youngsters who need a proven coach who can take them onto the next level. Templeton has shown flashes of what he can do but over the season I cant put him in the top 2 or 3. I have to give POTY to Andy Little. We all new Wallace and McCulloch were capable of playing at this level, but Little was a fringe player previously and has stepped up to the mark and banged in some cracking goals this season and he'll take some shifting from the first team. Despite playing badly due to tactics and coaching all the players deserve a mention for being prepared to get the club through the season.

So 12-12-18 can still go through but scrap the split and change it to play offs. On his talksport interview it was more the split he was opposed against. Therefore no change in structure at all in the SPL but SPL 2 will be formed making the SPL out weigh the SFL with 24 clubs to 18. They will still then be relying on a TV deal that includes Rangers games...

Nothing to lose, no brainer for me. Considering we signed Sandaza and Kevin Kyle Novo is a different level of player to them. Would take Novo over Miller.

Who is the Irish bloke talking? Classic case of patronising Journalism.

I hope the ban starts next season.

As said months ago...all German final Dortmund to win it.

Once again by far the most interesting league. Teams from mid table can still go down and up until last week top 10 could still go up. Blackburn probably secured safety last night beating Millwall, pity as they are shockingly ran. Wolves could be on their way down.

But in the SPL he was arguably our best defender. Wages aside Id take him back.

Start this thread again. All German final.

Ok...cracking player for West Ham.

Bayern v Barca Always said Zee Germans were the better side but if Barca show up there is only 1 winner. 5/1 on half time full time biggest steal odds ever! 2/1 for the win!!! Dortmund v Real Zee Germans will win this

Barcelona 5/1 half time full time against Munich. Yes sir well worth a flutter. Come on the Messi.

Dont forget to order your tatties from taypack.com Queen of the south have been impressive, id take half their team at the moment. Much better potential than the SPL guff we get linked to. Would like to see Boca and Goian back. Our defence has been woeful all season.

Defoe is a wee mink who should have got done back then also. You cant bite someone in the street....the laws between football and walking down the street should be no different, a kick here and there is hard to prove intent but a bite isnt. 100k a week...little mink. Liverpool are a disgrace for not sacking or fining him.

Got to agree with Gav. I like Di Canio's passion and it was a perfect fit for him. The question is whether he can keep it up for a season. Absolute cracking player aswell. I think they will win at Villa.

He's not bad that Van Persie bloke. What a 2nd goal... Villa in the shite, the last game of the season they play Wigan which could be a belter

Beat Villa tonight and Sir Alex wins Utds 20th title. Considering it was Liverpool 18-7 Man Utd when he joined it is a fantastic achievement. It will now read Liverpool 18-20 Man Utd. I used to deteste Utd in the 90s yet in the last 5 years Ive likened to them much more than money boys City and Chelsea. Great stuff to take the title off City whom have been out of sorts all year. Hope they stuff Villa tonight and win the league. Villa, I wouldnt mind seeing go down. Been a boring team for years now. Them and Stoke are both awful to watch.

Good to see Durie looking well. Warnock is the biggest pratt in the football world and id have never entertained the though of him being Rangers Manager. Putting his wankerness aside, coud he actually be a decent shout?! He actually has a good record in the Championship and does demand winning. Blonde 1 behind to the right of Warnock is a bit tasty!

I wouldnt fancy us if Queen of the south were in the league. They are consistent and beat others no problem.

Disgrace. He doesnt deserve to be a footballer. I hope the authorites hit him hard for that. 10 game ban, 200k fine and 1 month community service - at least!!
