I still recon that if you have only 4 teams being promoted; and 4 being relegated; with position 5 to 8 still qualifying for the super league. In my opinion the leagues would be a lot more competitive and stop teams so much throwing games on purpose.
I expecting some players to say no to this; but if this game is more competitive and make the game even better than what it is now.
I purposed almost the same thing some months ago: abandon the current stupid level structure in order to adopt a league structure more similar to the association one with promotion and relegation. From diamond league or premiere league or as you like to name it and then down down to the gold and silver.
In these way, in few months, really competitive teams that want to spend money will be in the premiere league and the others down following their strength.
Competitions would be more fair. But of course guys who are happy to spend money to win easy would be less gratified
