Sensible
However why should the winner of a league have to play off against the loser of the league above? That is just another attempt at protectionism

Problem is the more Level 2 clubs push for automatic promotion to/and relegation from the Prem the more you push the top clubs to forcing through a closed shop. Not ideal but at least the suggested play off scenario keeps the door open for both promotion for top placed Championship club to go up but gives the Prem club one last chance to retain their status. Not perfect obviously but such a compromise is probably the best you're going to get

If the Championship wants 14 or 16 teams, it should do it at the end of this season. Get all of the reorg done in one hit. It is not as if there are not enough good teams in Nat 1 ready to join Richmond, Ampthill, Coventry, Hartpury, Ealing, Doncaster, Jersey and Scottish - all of whom have won promotion since the creation of the championship. Pirates and Nottingham were promoted in the 2000s in the National 1 era. Only Bedford have been at level 2 since before 2000 - 1994.

That said then why on earth would you suggest I wanted to wait until January to start the season? Raider 999 has the answer to the current problem in his post above yours which supports my original view.
