Scottish Football 2012 - 2013 Season
Kev- the SPL( and any top division) are not allowed to schedule mid-week games on the CL/Europa league dates.
AMMS- I'm not opposed to a top division of 20 teams. In an ideal world I'd support it. But 20 team, or even 18 team top divisions, are the exception, not the rule. You've listed 22 teams and I'd say Ayr and Airdire are a stretch, even allowing for 'potential'. With a 3 up, 3 down set-up you'd be looking at having a part-time team(s) in the top league with a support base and average gates in the hundreds. In the short term it would bankrupt most of the current SPL and lead to huge gap developing between the top division and the rump remaining below it.
Torres- Southern softie.
