This has appeared a few times in discussions lately, usually because Braehead have an "unfair advantage"
I had a discussion in Glasgow Wetherspoons with Bob The Driver, and we had differing ideas on how to handle that, but with the same intent - to take out that advantage for a team which dominates the "weaker" conference
Bob's idea was to have half of the conference games count towards the league standings, such as the first and third at each venue for each conference pairing - second and fourth would count towards conference standings only
My idea was that games between conferences count for double points
Neither would have any impact on the total number of games played, or the reduction in travel costs which I believe was a big reason for setting up the conference system
Either seems readily workable, anyone have better ideas?
