Okay... I think that I have come up with a solution to the problem.
We'll be adopting a three tier structure of two tiers with 5 teams and one with 4. Which tier which will only 4 teams change so that each different level will experience a nice rotation.
So with twelve weeks left in the league it will look as follows. Tiers will rotate every 3 weeks.
Tier 1: 5,5,4,5
Tier 2: 4,5,5,4
Tier 3: 5,4,5,5
The tiers with 5 teams will play with the three man sheets and would have to play one of the other teams twice within the rotation, but c'est la vie.
The number of teams moving from tier to tier will either be 1 or 2 depending on the number of teams in the original and destination tiers and their starting and ending number of teams. (There is a formula).
I think this makes more sense than the 2 tiers of seven.
Let me know if you have question of comments.
