but then, that would lay down grounds for clubs to expand their horizons. During winter months, they could travel off to training complexes in Spain, italy etc..
Say, in January, we travelled to spain for two weeks training. That would leave the players both rested and fit for the new season. It would also be a way to advertise the club considering the fact that in the summer months, tourism in scotland trebles and if people who have seen the club play in spain are over for the festivals, they could perhaps want a taste of Scottish football at the business end on the season. Hence, more income for the club, better revenue means a better standard of football. Along with the better conditions and a more enticing appeal for player to join the league, I'd say that summer football is a definite go ahead.
All hypothetical of course and based upon an idealistic (non realistic?) scenario. it would also take a few seasons of work to get it done.!
Also would the change mean an entire year out of football? or would the start of the season gradually get later and later?
