I’m a big fan of the Super 8’s format and I do believe we should stick with it. It’s different and it is exciting, though for the teams involved in the MPG it’s brutal. But isn’t that what sport is about? It’s part and parcel of sport.
That being said, now we are moving away from the Super 8’s I think we should do;
- Bottom SL down, Top of Championship up
- 2nd bottom SL plays 2nd Championship in MPG
That way you’re still sending the worst from SL down and the best from the Championship up.
Regarding the play offs I hope we don’t go back to the ridiculous 8 team play off format. It rewards rubbish teams! I hope we stick with Top 4 play offs where teams actually are rewarded for having a decent season.
looks like you and me have the same thoughts on how the system ought to work,
at first when the 8s was brought in I thought it wouldn't work but it did help by keep mid season interesting now it will be become a bore again,
if we are to return to a up and down I think we should make it two teams like you said as it would make the the bottom far interesting in the survival stake, I keep hearing ever season about players can't plan for the future mortgages and so on, well do know I've not had easy ride too so get on with it.
coming from a supporter of a club that has spent most of its years at the bottom of the table it not much of a change to me, every season we know we aren't going to win any bright work and its always ends in a constant survival mode, its no wonder the crowds have dropped
top 4 play off sounds about right, one down and another in a MPG again spices it up, how about protecting the clubs that get promoted for one season to stop the yo yo effect allowing them time to restructure to SL
