Hi,

A few general questions I would be really grateful if you could answer.

1. I have a relegation based playoff between prem division and championship were bottom two clubs from prem and top two from championship go into a league with the top two team from this will be in prem next season. I wanted to ask about having a promotion based playoff in the championship ? my question is say I have four teams in a promotion based playoff and choose 2 teams for the ?number of teams qualified for upper division playoff? as 2. Will this mean the two teams that win this playoff go into the relegation playoff I mentioned above? If so for the relegation playoff should I still select 2 teams in the ?number of teams in lower division from playoff? or should I leave this or set it as 0 as the teams will automatically be placed in this playoff from the promotional playoff I mentioned.

2. I have a developing league pyramid and I am at the stages between levels 7 and 8. The first question I have is will I need to select for each sub division the league that a team will be promoted and relegated into or will this happen automatically.

The next question I have is would it work if I did like a pooled playoff between all the teams finishing top of the leagues in level 8 and having the bottom teams in level 7. I wondered if this would be feasible to do this, or could it end up with some leagues being bigger than others.
Another question I wanted to ask is could I do the same sort of playoff but with only a set number of group winners from one level. For example level 8 had 14 teams, could I just say 8 teams from all of these leagues go into a playoff and it would automatically choose the 8 best teams? Would the same thing work for automatic promotions and relegations.

Thank you in advance for any replies to these questions.
 
I think a round robin with home advantage going to the highest seed (19th place in the prem) so, 2nd and 3rd in the Championship play 20th and 19th in the prem in a league with all teams playing eachother only once. The top two join or rejoin the Prem, and the other two join or rejoin the Championship. The only idea I can think of anyway.

And I'm not 100% sure on the second question, sorry
