Come on LS, please try and see the bigger picture. Football in Scotland is in major trouble and has to be addressed.
We're now without a game for 2 weeks and I wonder what the powers that be upstairs are having to do to ensure we can pay our bills & wages.
If this type of proposal could save Scottish football, it must be considered at least.
Remember, the teams were created when football was the major attraction for the working man. There was no telly, no internet, Sky or BT sport, no cars worth talking about, transport was poor and your wages got you by. Families didn't go abroad on holiday. Football was the release after a weeks work and the crowds in those days could afford to go to the game.
We have to move on.
