Same applies to League 2. Three should drop and three should come in, trouble is most non league clubs don't meet the required specs for their grounds etc. I say three up three down ALL leagues with no play offs.
Fair points and lot of people sit on either side of the fence on this,but would you have made your donny rovers post if that was case…?..

Actually what’s worse than the current play offs system,remember the relegation play offs,where one team from near bottom went into playoffs with 3 teams from the division lower,I think we was one of the first in them,,when we lost too Swansea over two legs and went down,imagine going down in a play off..?..it was very a much a false hope.think they still do that in Scotland…we scrapped it quickly as none of the relegation teams ever survived..
