Great competition this season, it’s only now that four clubs are beginning to pull away. I actually meant to put "top" leagues as you'll find lower leagues can and are competitive, like the English Championship (even our championship can be competitive at times). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally there’s a runaway winner with the occasional surprise getting the last playoff place. I’m only familiar with two other leagues, Scottish 2 and Highland League Neither is competitive in the sense of uncertain contest for the likely winners. I have the old fashioned view that every match is a contest. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did admit to a lack of knowledge of other leagues, so his soul / complete data-set is Scottish football. It's a wonder he entered a conversation / debate regarding league reconstruction with no knowledge of how other leagues work or how competitive they are as a result of their structure. Maybe alterior motives but that would be derailing the thread. I think the overall response to the thread shows that most who entered the debate believe that reconstruction needs to happen for the development of the Scottish game. Not that it's going to happen anytime soon as some clubs won't vote for less OF games and sponsors and TV companies won't back it either.

ranger_syntax 4,767 Posted Tuesday at 18:58 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:58 This is another classic league reconstruction thread. Most who enter the thread can't answer the following questions: What is the problem with Scottish football? Why does it follow from the existing structure? Why would an alternative structure improve the situation? Even when someone has an answer you can guarantee that they will tap out after minimal pushback on their suggestion. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger_syntax 4,767 Posted Tuesday at 19:01 Share Posted Tuesday at 19:01 The reasons for frustration are obvious. It's difficult to admit you've spent years watching something that is bad and can't be improved. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
