The Share of TV Money?

Ban TV and be done with this silly argument. The OF have an unfair advantage due to getting more tv money and more exposure. 27 years since a team outwith the OF won the league! Yes, we have larger supports, but that doesn't give us a divine right to more tv money. The SPL needs a Hearts or a Dundee Utd to win the league. It would invigorate Scottish football. Change the voting structure as it benefits no one other than the OF. This self interest has damaged Scottish football.

duke i agree with the other teams. the old firm taking a bit of a hit to allow the other clubs to flourish a little can only be good for the league. we're always moaning we're sick of the dross

Perhaps mmmm though Im not sure

This 2 million we would give away

That is perhaps 2 or 3 class players

Now that would have little impact on our SPL challenge but are we willing to drop even further down the euro ranking
Those 2 or 3 players could be a big loss at this level

FFS! Yer no wantin the Gers tae take anither hit

Relentless basterts

Quebec I was 9 to 18 during 9 in a row and didn't know much better. I do know now that the lack of competition in the SPL with only either half winning the title will slowly but surely kill Scottish football.

It's now 27 years since a non-OF team won the league and at this rate it will be another 27 without them winning the league.

Interesting responses guys, an issue we can all debate without tinted spectacles, I suppose.

We need radical changes. We have a league where the team in eighth could have more points than the team in fifth. Where two clubs will dominate for the eternity of Scottish Football and most clubs' main objective is survival.

We seriously need to look at pricing and placing our younger players on well thought out contracts, you know contracts with clauses that prevent Npower Championship teams stealing players for rock bottom prices; where what they pay for the player will be a tenth of what they are worth almost overnight.

Money or no money...the best players will always want to play for the OF

It was 20 odd years of OF dominance before Aberdeen won it in the 80's

play offs are great we should have them

The split I feel is good particularly in a 2 horse race

Imagine without and one had Dunf and Hibs the other Hearts and Motherwell in the last games

The only alternative is add 6 teams... can we do that??

The New Firm revolution came about in a different era and at a time when both clubs had special managers. If I remember rightly Dundee United used only 13 players the year they won the league.

The greatest times for Scottish Football in Europe has been when our league was at it's most competitive. It surely cannot be any coincidence.

And before all the BIG leagues were bringing in ALL the best players.That'll no come back, unless Uefa change their system which suits the big boys.

We have 70 Scottish players playing in the Championship and Division 1 alone
