Make it an end of season KO comp . 1v2 . 3v4 , 5v6 etc If you are gonna include 8th place you may as well iclude everyone .

What a terrible format.

I think it was about 1903 when we first had a playoff system of some description.

My only stipulation would be in a 14 team league, to revert to a top 6 playoff instead of top 8. Other than that, as tvoc says, as long as everyone knows the rules at the beginning of the season I cant see why its a problem to some people.

Yep, a format whereby the 5th placed team gets the biggest advantage.

Scrap the playoffs? No thanks. This season would now be done & dusted and the off season's quite long enough (from a spectating POV at any rate).

I preferred the top 5 version. I think it was unique to the sport and gave fair advantage reflective of finishing position.

Baldrick its the worst plan since Abraham Lincoln said " I'm sick of kicking around the house lets go take in a show"
