    Look at the Belgian league it's an absolute joke! You've got a team that, for example, is top of the league by ten points, not winning the title! Instead, the title goes to the team that finished way back in third because they won the little mini playoff at the end of the season! It's nonsense!

      We have this system in Australia too
      For all our sports
      It's an Aussie thing
      Top 8
      1st vs 4th
      2nd vs 3rd
      5th vs 8th
      6th vs 7th
      If you're in the top 4 and lose your game you verse one of the winners of the 5th/8th games
      If you won your top 4 game you go straight to the last 4

    No. I dislike the playoffs they have for promotion in the football league, where say in the Championship the team that finishes 3rd out of a 46 game season wins 18 points more than the team that finishes 6th. But that 6th placed team wins the playoffs. So instead of the 3rd best team in the Championship being promoted on merit after finishing higher over 46 games, the 6th best team goes up.

      @@TtableWhey I should specify to say that consistency matters less, not that it doesn't matter at all. You get rewarded for your regular season performance by getting to play your single elimination games at home and getting a bye during the first round. Consistency gives you a better chance of winning it all. However, it means that, in theory, 43% of the league still has the chance to win a trophy going into the final 5 weeks of the season. That heightens the drama and keeps more fanbases engaged.
      Most teams in the EPL haven't had anything to care about for months now. Wolves, Bournemouth, Fulham, Brighton all started the season with almost nothing to play for and are going to end yet another season in mid table position. There's really only four teams left with anything to play for and yet all these other teams have to go out and play meaningless games for their schedules to be complete.
