I have been giving this some thought and was wondering what your viewpoints would be? To encourage teams to play all out attacking football, a la United, award a bonus point for games in the Premiership won by 4 or more goals.

United would have 7 more points this season.
Chelski would have 5 more points this season.
Liverpool would have 5 points more this season.
Arsenal would have 3 points more this season.

So, if Chelski beat Bolton today 4-0; they would collect 4 points & If United beat Wigan 2-0 we would collect 3 points!! But we would still win the title by virtue of the +2 bonus points awarded earlier.

This idea is just so stupid it hurts me that someone thought it up. How would lower teams survive who struggle to score 2 or 3 in most games?

[Keano!]

I'm really undecided on this matter.

Not so sure it will be used but in theory it should be great.

I'm on the fence.

i don't agree with it

What about Reading? They scored 4 against Spurs, or Sunderland, scoring 3 against Bolton? I don't think it's a good idea to have more points for goals scored, but I can see the arguements as to why you would have it; more attacking football, greater entertainment. Etc.

I can see you gave this a lot of thought. But, as a United fan, what do you think?

Playoffs is a better choice over 2 legs or even one grand final like we do in Australian football or in the A-league (even though it is a different kind of format mind you..).

Umm or even head to head seems to be a better choice imo..

[Bartmu]

let me just say this: if you'd support a lower team, this would be the most stupid idea ever. How're they supposed to score more then 4 goals against utd, liverpoo, arse or chel$ki?

I just think this is feasable. When they introduced the 3 points for a win
that was enough. I dont think this could ever work. Nice thought as it would
suit United but I just dont think its right.
