Agreed but the current top league 12 team setup and the 3 leagues of 30 teams for a nation of 5m is ludicrous.

We need to radically overhaul our football system and investment, 2 leagues only of 18 teams, each team requiring to have an approved youth setup and closer ties to schools. Football should then be like apprenticeships with these youth players being the future for our top teams, we should instigate 25 man squads and demand that 18 of them are homegrown.

The problem with this is it is all long term planning and short term pain and noone has the balls to push through the changes needed and instead will jealousy covet what others have rather than go out and make it happen for ourselves.

Paisley-

Absolutely agree with you.2 x 18 team leagues incorporating a pyramid structure.Regional play off leagues for entry into league 2.Our game is over romanticised and self preservationist.Did East Stirling not go almost an entire season recently without winning a game?Yet they get to take their place the following season.If clubs at the top need to constantly modernise and invest those at the bottom must also,or simply move aside.

Joe Cole in talks with Villa - unlikely they would pay
£8m for Davis to sit on the bench.
