I can answer that.
Usely they were 10teams.. So 2 got knocked out, and 8teams went on to play off.. 2 from last to play a playoff game against number 2 from the next division. While last place gets relegated straight away.
But 2 season ago, a team went broke.. No money at all, so they had to withdraw from the league, with very short notice.. The problem was that no teams in the 2 division is ready and have the money to play in the best league..
Actually the problem is still like that.
Most teams from the best league, has their second teams playing in the 2division, so they can not get promoted... But as it look right now, Aarhus Crocodiles, from 2division will get promoted, and they should be ready for it.. Im not sure how they are going to do it, if they just promote them, and then make a playoff game like normal with 9th place and 2 like normally.. And then finally have a 10team league again...
Damn... That problably didnt make sense.
