Back to 2. How about this.
Divisions stay as they are with the number of points needed to reach each division.
But then.... The top ranked 16 associations ( be they ranked by end of season points or another method) form a division for the following season. This draw is done once a season, putting all association teams in a division of 16 for the following season.
Each association within a division plays all other teams once through the course of a season. 15 matches. No home advantage, only support counts towards posession bonus. Same points system as now, 3 for a win, 1 for a draw. Some bonus points for winning the tie to make up the points needed to reach the next division ( to replace the 50 for 1st, 25 for 2nd and 10 for 3rd).
We currently play 16 matches a season so the last Saturday of the season would be free of association games. We got the SuperCup there now. Gives an extra day for the next draw to be worked on.
Don't know what else. Making this up as I go along.
