THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK
Life President⭐⭐
Because of the old photo's thread, I discovered that when Southend played their first game at Roots Hall in 1955, they were in Division 3 South. There was 4 Divisions, 1, 2, 3 North and 3 South.
Now because of rising debt and with a few clubs struggling to survive in the 2 lower Leagues, do you think it would be a good idea to split our Division 1 and 2 into North and South. It would save a fortune in travelling expenses for clubs and supporters. It would save a fortune for clubs in stay overs on the Friday before most games played on Saturdays.
Would you be in favour or against?
If in favour, how would promotion work to still include the play-offs which are quite popular? I know what I would suggest, but would like to hear your ideas.
We would have more derby matches against Colchester and Orient, which is a big plus in my eyes.
Some of you may not fancy it now, but the way things are going with so many clubs owing Millions, something needs to be done. So in future years, the League bosses may be forced to look at this idea.
What's your view?
