Right.
I just thought of this when I read the title of your thread but it's obvious really.
It's not like it's an original idea.
Handicaps
For the likes of the Scottish league it could apply to the top four or whatever the European qualification number is.
So, the winner of the league gets a ridiculous advantage now with champions league money so any sensible set up wouldn't want to see the same winner too many times.
So, the champions get handicapped tae f'uck.
Let's say they start on -15 points
If they win it a second time then they start the next season on -20 points.
Someone more numerate than me can work out the gradings but let's aim for every team having the same points total come the end of February.
Would seem a bit patronizing to start with but we'd soon get used to it.
The only other alternative is every league having one team so far ahead of the rest that football is unwatchable.
The saddest thing in Scotland of course is that the powers at be would be perfectly happy to accept two teams being so far ahead that football is unwatchable.
