ST owner Johnstone Adam Webb says Sky Sports why plans to reduce Scottish premiere to 10 teams would be a “huge mistake” because it explains why the growth of the highest flight is the right turn
ST owner Johnstone Adam Webb was the first boss of the best years to publicly criticize the model of 10 teams, Said Sky Sports that reducing the number of premiere clubs would be a “huge mistake”.
Webb – whose club is currently the day of Premiership – believes that a larger 14 -duty model should be implemented, in the future it grew on 16 pages.
“That would be a huge mistake (lowering the highest flight to 10 teams),” Webb said Sky Sports.
“I think a bar for good or bad when it comes to football, British football and world football is the English Premier League.
“They have 20 clubs and although we are not the same size as England, of course, and we will not have 20 clubs in our premiere – what you want to do is closer to it.
“It is a more well -known system that is more focused on success on the world scene and the British scene. We should absolutely aim in the opposite direction.
“In terms of quality in the championship this season, I can tell you that we have two, three, four clubs in the premiere, and that is where we should go. We should grow the premiere.
Falkirk led the championship with Livingston – who were displaced last season – also in rivalry about promotion
“We should go to the 14 -tým league very soon and then five years later – if the quality in the championship is sufficient – we are screened into the 16 -tým league, and if it is constantly growing, we can ensure that the quality is.
“We absolutely have to have quality with every team in the premiere, but that’s the direction we should go, because it’s better for Scotland, it’s better for Scottish football.”
