    I see too many unnecessary information in the other thread, I will like to discuss with the people that want PR to happen how they think it should work.

    I’m thinking maybe 4 divisions, the top 2 with 26 teams and the bottom 2 with 24 teams... idk just randomly thinking.

    Outside of England and Scotland, I don't know of any countries with four nationwide levels. Considering the USA is larger than European countries, I don't think there will ever be a nationwide fourth level. Why would you expect that considering that the much more popular sport of baseball has their minor leagues regionalized. The AAA leagues have some long travel, but the fourth level, which is A Advanced, can be done mostly or entirely by bus. The leagues at that level are the California League, Carolina League, and Florida State League.

    Three regionalized third level leagues of 16 to 18 clubs would make more sense than nationwide leagues at the third and fourth levels with 24 clubs.

    Like I said I’m just randomly thinking.

    USL maybe should follow the college football system?

    Does this mean amateur PR fans can't post ?

    They can but they have to be registered with their federation.

    College teams change conferences to make more money. Conferences compete with each other. Different leagues at the same level of the same country don't compete with each other except in cups. A club that wins its league would get promoted, not change to a more popular league at the same level. Additionally, I don't know if one professional soccer league will ever have over 100 clubs at the same level like NCAA Football has.

    NO.

    You don't get to set the parameters.
