its claimed that its down to a lack of quality, facilities or both
but currently the 1st divison has
Dundee, Hamilton (now promoted), Dunfermline, Livingston, Partick
all top league teams within the last 10 years or so
could easily have a 16-18 team league
merge the lower divisions to make a SPL & championship idea
then bring in the Junior level football to form a pyramid system like in England
a lot of Junior teams have big supports compared to actual full league teams
if you keep it the way it is, the rich get more richer, and the small go bust.
wouldnt the potential and the dream of playing one of the glasgow clubs help the smaller boys both in a footballing sense and a financial sense?
