Wonder what the odds for all those SPL results would have been? :blink:

10/1 Hibs - 4/1 Hearts - 6/1 st mirren

A wee brown pound on them would have went down well :thumbup:

New structure for scottish leagues Vote on 20/12/101:
Proposale off:

SPL 1 - 10 TEAMS

SPL 2 - 10 TEAMS

REGIONAL 1 and 2 leagues

Play off for second bottom of spl 1 with 2nd 3rd & 4th of spl 2.
(Two semis & a final) For promo to spl 1
Last in spl 1 down and first in spl 2 up.
Also a poss of spl 1 clubs having feeder clubs in regional leagues (as in spain).


So what do you think? still boring with 10 teams playing each other at least 4times a season.?

Games would start in mid july with a winter break.

Well it,s better than the dross on offer the noo and crowds are dropping quicker than the temps in scotland.

2 x 10 team leagues make no sense :confused: you will still end up with the same teams playing each other up to 5 or 6 times a season - A very radical re-think is needed and god knows what that is

(Be nice to see dundee being given their 25 points back and automatic promotion back to the big league though :p )

I suppose the play offs add a little drama at the end of the season, but i really dont think a winter break will bring the fans back....good football will.

As a st.johnstone fan! Dundee should have got a 50 point penalty and they should have been made to clean the snow from mc diarmid park for the rest of the winter...........:rofl:

Resurrecting this thread to post what must be the most bizarre Director's Statement EVER from a professional football club. This is the club that finished 3rd in the SPL.

Here's what "Mad Vlad", the owner of Hearts FC, Vladimir Romanov, has posted as a Board of Directors' statement on the official club site... :blink::blink::blink:

Had a wee gander at this, this morning in the Daily Record:rofl:

Quite bizarre, you'd expect a Russian/Lithuanian would be happy with mafia interference.

Who's he talking about?The SFA????

Are you serious? Celtic and Rangers are the worst things about Scottish football - pure sectarian, avaricious poison.

This is a great day for Scottish football fans. Cheats will not prosper.

Serious, yes. So is your suggestion that Celtic go the same route ? then what? I loathe the Rebel/Orange crap by the way.
Rangers will only come back as something new anyway.............
