Well Celtic Crusaders certainly didnt cease to exist in the year they reached the championship play-off final.

Is it about teams, or clubs? ,make your mind up?

A well run efficient growing club? , or a basket case club with a succession of idiots running it?

The league then knockout structure is popular throughout the world. It is used in most of the biggest competitions in the world.

I am not aware of any other structure in the world that part way through the season disregards previous points totals and starts a new league competition.

both
What?

That was 2007 , I said 2008

So the positions after those 22 games are sorted alphabetically?
population?
combined shoe sizes?

points accumulated?





Who is this basketcase team that beat us comfortably ???

And who is this Part time team you talk of, cant speak for other champ teams but Fev will be full time from 2015.

If Fev can't break the bottom four of super league so be it at least they may have the opportunity

Yes and promotion and relegation is popular throughout the world as well

There have been several major competitions with more than 1 knock out group stage played on a league basis culminating in 1 final elimination match, so whats different?

no it wasnt, they were promoted through franchising when it began in 2009.

They played in the 2008 championship grand final.

The points are reset to 0. You can sort them at that point in to any order you want its not going to make a difference. Those 8 clubs then restart a new league.

hth

not really. Yearly P+R in this format or the previous ones used are almost exclusive to European Soccer. Outside that most major sports dont have anything comparable.
like?

You said the Crusaders ( not Celtic ) played in 2009 ,make your mind up?

The biggest team sporting event in the world perhaps?

its at the top of this page you silly banana. You even quoted it

is this where we see you pretend to get confused again?

Lol I mean the 22 games are not irrelevant, they sort out the positions in the league.



Yet still better than many SL teams did against them last season



Getting paid full time to do a job is professional




speculating again, you forgot to put "in your bias opinion"

Whywould Fev being in SL not help the growth of the game - go on real of another load of bull from your mind and speculation. look into your crystal ball you have and tell me our attendance would be crap because were from a hamlet. That we would end up skint and that players such as Hardaker, Burrows and briscoe still wouldn't play for us.
