gittinsfan Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 A lot of people think that Toronto should be deemed champions and promoted because they topped the league. Yet the same people think the SL champions should be decided by a play off system. Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkMan Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 The way football has promotion from the Championship to the Premier League is the best IMO. Have both automatic promotion AND playoffs. The top team ie Toronto automatically go up replacing the bottom club ie London, and therefore don't take part in the playoffs. 2nd to 5th are in the playoffs, and the winner plays the 2nd bottom of SL in MPG. Simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I find strange is the inability of people to comprehend the fact that the promoted team needs to survive a full season in a stronger league the following year meaning the two scenarios are not like for like comparisons.

But there is a different logic to promotion and doing it with a play off is flawed. There is no play off for relegation either. There used to be , we got rid of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been pretty clear during all this that I am not offering my opinion on who should be promoted, just that there is a difference between the Super League and Championship despite the same system being used. That difference is the consequence of what happens the following year. Because of this, I think you can discuss the two without being considered a hypocrite. As you have asked my opinion. I believe whoever is the champion team should be promoted and if the top 5 play off is used to decide the champion team then whoever wins the play off's should be promoted.

As I put , if the single consideration is SL , then it's licencing , if it's a genuine ' test ' of who is best prepared on the pitch it's the 8s , we've decided on neither Did Mr McDermott ever offer an opinion on the 8s ?
