He (Peter Varney) said: “I have always believed in a Premiership One and Premiership Two, which would be made up of the Championship clubs.

Interesting quote this now- I'm not sure on my views, regarding Prem 1&2 now, certainly it was a step up 10 years ago- but is it now?

    Obviously it's a good idea now we've been relegated.

    How about - and this is a controversial one - a league of four divisions, with money from the top division helping the lower divisions? You could call them Division One, Division Two, etc.

    What would be the difference between having a Prem 1 and Prem 2, and having a Prem and a Championship? Whats the point in the change if you're using Championship teams to form Prem 2?

    Fantastic idea Inspector Sands, but I can't see it catching on!

    It would probably mean a smaller Premier league 1, the top 4 would push for just 16 clubs.

    It might be a good thing to have more fluidity between the two ie. more teams relegated/promoted, eg. five or six moving each way say, which maybe could help bridge the gulf between the two levels at the moment and stamp down on mid-table malaise?
