Hello again! Sorry!

 After having read everyones views I have a suggestion. The league system
would accomodate more teams - this is very important as the amount of new
teams last year in Scotland alone was good, for it's size!! The promotion
religation thing could be done at the end of every tournament. Why not
have the bottom div1 vs top div2 etc. play-off at the end of every tour.
This at least gives the chance for rapid movement if a team is truly
better than their seedings. It also accomadates all the other pro's for
the league system. At least this way a team could at least play a much
higher ranked in the following tournament. It also supplies the incentive
for consistancy (BAF and others!). The draw back still exists about not
evryone getting a shot at one of the 'big-boys' (and I'm not just talking
about Barnard's trouser length!). I honestly can't see a way of pleasing
all sides of the argument but hey, that's Hughes' job.
