jaydog2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 With yet another new team joining the w-league.The question should the league go back to w1 and w2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydog2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 At the time there was only 12 teams in w-2 and 16 in w1 they though they needed to merge the w1 and w2.Maybe then it was good but now there is just way way to many teams.

Richard Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Might be a good idea to have W1 play a continent wide flat schedule and W2 play regionally as with USLD1 and D2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 This makes, what, 39 teams? They should definitely split it up. The disparity between the top teams and the bottom teams is ridiculous. You have teams like New Hampshire whose GF/GA was 4-96 in 14 games! If there is any league in North America that could successfully adopt a multi-divisional promotion/relegation system, it's the W-League. I would go even further and suggest that its time the women had a real professional, or at least semi-professional, first division. The NCAA players could play in the lower divisions until they graduate. This way you get the best of both worlds. The NCAA players can participate without losing their eligibility, and the older players can finally make a living (for a few months out of the year, at least). Smaller cities could still compete in the lower divisions while building their fan support - without all these humiliating blowouts ruining their credibility.

jaydog2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 I really don't think even the even the w league could do a promte/reg system.Part of the issues was with the old w1/w2 is alot of the w2 teams could not affrod to play in the w1.Some of the of the w1 teams sent down had so much money to buy players they blew every other team away.I think we could see about 45 teams at last count this year.
