This is a suggestion that I support, not only because I am a fellow swede, but because it would favor the whole BB.
Ofcourse will the financial part be adjusted in the new leaguesystem.
Doesn't BB already do this?
A strong Div.II-league in Spain has a higher TV-deal, higher salaryfloor than say a weak Div.II-league in Sweden?!
Also, for those who favor an App, advertising and other features to recruit NEW managers.
What if we manage to recruit NEW managers, but the run into the problems Manon describes with uncompetitive bot-season year 1-2 followed by a season of too good competition? Will they not leave the game?
My point is, we propably need to fix this before/while we try to recruit new managers. Dont put this suggestion AGAINST an app and/or advertising.
Perhaps, as mentioned, this change would only be for smaller nations but then we will have different systems for different nations and what happends if a nation grows or shrinks above or beneath the breaking point? Not preferable.
And this is NOT a super big change. It will simply position managers in a competitive environment according to the current national ranking. You will end up where you belong, it is as simple as that.
It will not "fix" all problems either, but as Manon describes, make the transitions between divisions a little smoother wich is good for everyone.
For those managers "dropping" a division, it will most certainly not result in a major dip of financial means, just a small one, more adjusted to the current level of the team. The only change would be the "number/name" of the division. Teams would hold on to their national rank, world rank and so forth.
The promotion part, not discussed?
D1 will demote 8th seed in conference(1+1) and 2 teams by relegation series(6th seed vs 7th seed). 4 teams demote.
D2 will promote finals-teams(2+2), relegation just like D1(4+4).
D3 will promote finals-teams(2+2+2+2), relegation as it is now
D4-6 no changes from todays rules.
