How About?

Home Draw-1 point
Away Draw-2 points
Home Win-3 Points
Away Win-4 points

With another point for every goal scored. So, if you won an away match 4-2, you'd take back with you 8 points! Even the losing side would get 2 points. Our home draw vs Boro last season-we'd have got 5 points, they'd have got 6.

Sort of thing that would negate teams having huge leads, positions could chop and change every week, all season, would certainly be interesting.
