    Names for divisions

    Posted by Poster from the past on 14/4/2025, 20:18:56

    False modern football nonsense names:

    Premier League
    Championship
    League One
    League Two


    Correct names:

    First Division
    Second Division
    Third Division
    Fourth Division


    Stop buying into the modern football nonsense.

    CORRECT NAMES ONLY


    outlaws is not the barometer of sanity.

          Football has not been the same since the bottom 2 divisions stopped being regionalised

            Never going to happen.

            Go back to that system you'll have 4 of 48 promoted, instead of 7 of 48 as it is now.

              You could have a twenty team top division and second division. Then three twenty team divisions North, Midlands and South. Replicate at non league level.

                No need, we're a small country. 5 Divisions of 20 before going North/South - when part-time teams get involved. 4 promoted and 4 relegated, 8 relegated in regional divisions, every game counts, scrap the play-offs.

                  The problem with that is that only one team can be promoted from each of three Third Divisions so the season could be over for most teams with months to go.

                    Not necessarily, top two promoted would certainly mean a regular shake up in the second tier...
                    Realistically the only big change coming in football is when the so called big guns finally go Euro Super Duper League.

                      There's not a cat in hell's chance that Div 2 teams would vote in anything that would relegate 30% of them every season

                        Even two promoted would mean no play offs or only one automatic which has been criticised for years in the Conference.

                    Tourist division.
                    Wannabe division.
                    Dreamers division.
                    Hopeless division.

                      Regionalised divisions never work though in reality.

                      Eventually southern clubs find themselves in the northern region and vice versa out of necessity with promotion and relegation.

                      For example, Gloucester City, Lowestoft Town and King's Lynn Town have already been placed in the northern sections of their leagues because the southern section already has it's full complement of southern based clubs.

                        Bishop's Stortford was in the Northern division a few years back And Needham Market is in there this season.

                          There was a danger a couple of seasons back that St Albans could've ended up in Conference North.

                          Apparently there were marches on Parliament planned, the effect on house prices there could've been devastating.

                          Kings Lynn is further north than Birmingham

                            But its not in the north. So how do you counter Gloucester and Lowestoft being in the northern sectors ?

                              If you can find a way of regionalising football divisions in a way that doesn't result in some clubs being nearer the border than others, then I suggest you make yourself known

                                It's just the way things are currently, ridiculous to expect a nice neat division of the country according to where football clubs are located. On King's Lynn it would a hell of a hike to play in Devon or Cornwall
