Proposal for league of 44 teams on SFL agenda today The Scottish Football League's 30 member clubs will meet today to discuss proposals for reconstruction to revive the game. Reconstruction has long been on the agenda of both the SFL and the Scottish Premier League, which is currently in charge of the top tier, but the new proposal reportedly favours one overall league body and three leagues of 16, 10 and 18 teams. These leagues would be made up of existing SPL clubs, the 30 SFL members plus second teams for Celtic and Rangers. SFL chief executive David Longmuir said: "The SPL are aware of it. It's not something new; these talks have been going on for quite a while. The content and the substance of the reconstruction proposal is slightly different, but the actual principle of discussing league reconstruction is not a new subject matter. We've been working with our clubs on ideas and how we might wish to take the game forward and how to improve it. Tomorrow's the first chance they're going to have to see the detail. We're going to be discussing a proposal that might re-energise and refresh the game and be compelling for fans and create a better structure for the game going forward. The timing is due to "a desire to improve Scottish football," Longmuir insisted. He added: "It's as simple as that. And to re-engage fans and to give them a compelling league structure which creates a bit of excitement, variety and also engages with investors, broadcasters and sponsors. Following consultation with the SFL's clubs, including Third Division side Rangers, Longmuir could then take the proposal to the SPL. He added: "We're only consulting with the clubs. They've got a chance to question, build on or critique it and that's exactly what we're going to do tomorrow. The 12 SPL clubs are scheduled to meet on 3 December at their regular general meeting where reconstruction, and possible expansion, is sure to be on the agenda. Major change currently requires an 11-1 majority but the loss of Rangers has not sparked the expected end to what had been termed by some as the "Old Firm veto." Following the meeting on 22 October, SPL chief executive Neil Doncaster suggested the debate on the voting structure would continue on 19 November. On restructuring, he said: "There is a real desire for change within the game. There is a public appetite for change, and that is matched by clubs as well. So, hopefully, we can work together to come up with a set of proposals on which we will get a consensus. Different clubs have different views about what the ideal format is. I think it's important on any change that you form a consensus. So we'll be working with all parties within Scottish football, our clubs and obviously the SFA and SFL, to see if we can agree exactly what that consensus should be. SFA chief executive Stewart Regan revealed he was aware of the proposals and would seek to discuss them together with both league executives. Regan said: "Reconstruction has been on the agenda for two years. A number of proposals have been tabled by the SPL. We have had debates going on for months and months and months. We remain committed to reconstruction. The leagues remain committed to reconstruction, but that will only happen if the clubs are comfortable with the proposals.
