No plastic pitches
We have no need to play the youngest team in the league 4 times a season in the league 20-12 ZOMBIES
16 team top tier.
16 in the top tier, get rid of the League Cup, and get the colt teams into an expanded Championship (with no way for the colts to get promoted, of course).
18 teams and only 2 pro leagues.
I have a 16 team genius solution. Have a 16 team league and do a 5/11 team asymmetric split after 30 fixtures. Then the top 5 play each other home and away adding 8 fixture and so 38 fixtures for the top 5. Then the bottom 11 play 10 games by playing each other once only and 5 home and 5 away giving them 40 games. It makes sense because we retain the x4 Glasgow derbies and bottom 11 play 10 games after the split. It’s genius, please spread it around. We should Not base Scottish football on All top flight teams getting 4 games against the big 2, we have to grow beyond that structure that holds us back.
Just a thought.
How do you think managers and fans would feel if the "money men" said …..ok. let's go for extending to 24 or 16 teams but we're told our revenue will decrease so your budget will decrease in
proportion?
16 teams play each other home and away no split simple
Stop with this whole rubbish sky want this sky want that regarding Celtic and rangers games it’s no upto sky
16 team top flight, play each other twice, 2 lower divisions….sorted!
14 .play each other home and away 26 games .Split 7 championship 7 relegation play each other home and away .Same 38 game season 2 free weeks and total fairness.
Same system as Greek league is the the solution for a 16 team league
The so called big teams from the arse end of Scotland being beaten by teams from Gibraltor and luxembourg….but it's the rest of Scottish football that's the problem with a lack of progress…gies peace min.
So long as half the players in the SPL aren’t even Scottish, I honestly don’t care anymore
Getting carried away with a new Rangers manager just like clement,Beale and gio 😂 when will these people ever learn
Said the other night on your other video, get rid of the current tv deal and let the teams sell there games through PPV. It worked during covid season and at least the smaller clubs would get more money by selling games to there own fans
16, keep the split, easy peasy
There is no chance of Ferguson getting the job. Need a bigger name.
Great show guys great banter talking points views opinons and topics come on the well come on ye well make sure you like subsribe and share the football show take care stay safe and enjoy your football over the weekend and will see you on the next one!!!
1-0 Motherwell
2-1 St Mirren
3-2 Rangers
2-1 Aberdeen
3-0 Celtic

14. Top six, bottom eight split. All you guys that are under 60 can't remember how horrendous an eighteen team league was. Totally boring meaningless fixtures. Get a reality check. Games that end in a cricket score.
All in your colours, looks like you are ready to do a Wiggles show 👍🦘
