This is what the English national leagues look like every year. Just look at Wrexham and Notts County breaking records with 100+ points each and Notts County still had to play playoffs to go up.

Every league should have 3 promotion spots though, even if 2 of them play playoffs. Seeing only one looks bizarre to me.

Leagues with 1 promotion spot are mostly regional leagues that promote into a national league. What are you going to do, relegate 12 teams each year from the league above?

[–] Echleon@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

How do those leagues work if the higher league has an imbalanced proportion of regions? i.e. Region A has 3 teams relegated from the higher league, but they're only promoting 1. Is their regional league just bigger the next season?
