I thought this was going to be a topic on the long running saga about a Prem 1 (16 teams) then a Prem 2 (16 teams)!

Posted
That's what I thought. Been talked about but won't see any developments until at least 2013 when the new TV deal runs out.

And on topic: Either way, its gonna be a tough old league but think we have the best foundations possible to do well!

In principle, I like the idea of a "UK" league Premier league.

Think about it for a moment - If we have two leagues of 16 teams - then European qualification would be as follows:

PREM 1

1. Leicester City - Champions League (England)

2. Manchester United - Champions League (England)

3. Arsenal - Champions League (England)

4. Liverpool - Champions League (England)

5. Chelsea - Europa League (England)

6. Manchester City - Europa League (England)

7. Everton

8. Aston Villa

9. Rangers - Champions League (Scotland)

10. Tottenham

11. Fulham

12. Celtic - Champions League (Scotland)

13. West Ham

14. Wigan

15. Stoke City

16. Bolton

PREM 2

1. Portsmouth

2. Blackburn Rovers

3. Hull

4. Middlesbrough

5. Hearts - Europa League (Scotland)

6. Wolverhampton

7. Newcastle United - Europa League (UK) - League Cup winners

8. Cardiff - Champions League (Wales)

9. Swansea - Europa League (Wales)

10. Bristol City

11. Burton Albion - Europa League (UK) - FA Cup winners

12. Sunderland

13. Glentorran - Champions League (N Ireland)

14. Rhyl FC - Europa League (Wales)

15. Dundee United - Europa League (Scotland)

16. Aberdeen - Europa League (Scotland)

The above standings are by no means my way of implying I like one club more than another.

The concept may need some work also.

Horrible. Just horrible.

The phrase "Premiership 2" makes me want to vom.

:sick:

It's makes more sense than having League 1 as the 3rd division. At least that will actually be the second division

Posted

Yes... the names of the divisions are ridiculous... they should rename them all so they are in order.

Premiership

Division 2

Division 3

Division 4

Conference

Conference N/S

Division 1

Division 3 makes more sense because the Football League is a separate entity from the Premier League. Under your proposed system the top division of the Football League is Division 2, which is just as odd, if not more so.

It should be-

Premier League

Division One

Division Two

Division Three

It worked perfectly well for 12 years.

The only reason I had put it as Division 2 is because that is the second division in English football... even if it is a separate entity, it is still the second league in the scale of things and so should be called so... but yes, I do see your point.

But the Conference is a separate entity and that still gets its own name!

Hmmmm... you could be wrong because 'Premier' in French is first so... either way you could be right or wrong. I say just scrap 'Premiership' and have Divisions 1, 2, 3 & 4.

you couldn't do that FFS - it's just too bloody logical and straightforward.

besides, if you changed the name of the premiership, there would be an outside chance of the top 4 clubs not selling as many shirts in malaysia.

our national game would be in meltdown. :rolleyes:
