There's a lot of people who I'd listen to about Scottish Football, but Pressley isn't one of them. When Falkirk were 8th he wanted the SPL reduced, when they are lower he wants it increased.
McLeish on the importance of "fans". The fans that wanted the top league increased..McLeish recommendation in his report....reduce it to 10. Although he's far from they worst they could have got.
