Keep or Scarp the play-offs?

What do you think?

I think they should be scapped as they are fun but unfair?

I also think they can be unfair at times but I think they should be kept.

Before the play offs there were losts of nothing games towards the end of the season with the play offs most teams have something to play for right up to the last game of the season so they keep the interest & entertainment alive.

I think they should be scrapped as it's rarely the team that finishes 3rd that goes through. It's more about the money now than a teams performance over a season.

Although there is a lot of heartbreak during the play offs. I feel it makes the divisions so much more interesting. And it would be a great shame to see them go.

I have experienced Play Off heartbreak back when City lost to Stoke, I have also experienced Play Off love, when City beat QPR. Although at the time we played Stoke, I hated the Play Offs, I still would not have said scrap them.

I would be very upset to see them go, it would make the football league a lot less exciting.

have to agree there. Playoffs are a guarantee of one last bit of genuine competition at the close of the season - even if the league has been all but sown up for weeks.

Keep them on, it keeps everything going right down to the wire.

& bring back the last place relegation playoff as well while we're at it
