Disagree, a more detailed linking of turnover to salary expenditure would be more prudent or alternatively a cap on losses linked to salary expenditure. It will stop clubs trading salaries at over 100% of their turnover whilst also giving the benefit of clubs with larger incomes the ability to spend it. There is a problem throughout the sport for excessive losses but a one rule fits all style of capping salary is not the answer. | |

I think it needs to be across all leagues as it's very messy having a cap in Leagues 1 and 2 but not higher up - just widens the divide and possibly increases the number of players willing to sit on Championship benches rather than play regularly in League One. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

I don't mind a more level playing field. Turnover linked I don't mind though.... although would have been problematic this season. However the cap should really be c.60% of t/o. | |

Needs to be enforced properly. Seem to recall a similar mechanism in the champ that clubs bypassed. | |

The FL has tried to control spending in the Championship, but this was ignored by many clubs on the grounds that if they were promoted to the PL, then the FL couldn't touch them until they were relegated. Many Championship owners wanted to be able to spend recklessly, as otherwise they thought they couldn't compete with the parachute clubs. The 3 relegated clubs are all in the top 6. Near impossible to have a salary cap system which is fair to all while promotion & relegation exists between leagues with totally different incomes. | |

It needs to be as close to real time as possible, not after the event. And any punishments need to include non-promotion if you break the rules. A scheme based on turnover is the fairest scheme for all clubs. But that turnover must be 'genuine', not a Derby County special. Football has never been about equality of finances and it shouldn't be now. It's why the salary cap as it stood was always likely to fail under a court ruling one day. | | | |

Good to hear, I couldn't recall any cases of clubs being punished for exceeding it in L1 or L2? Maybe none did. | |

I dunno, in a wider perspective I think the idea of general divisional salary caps is quite attractive. You all get the same budget, the best run club gets a go at the division above. Feels meritocratic. | |

Sure, doesn't work though when the rest of football (sadly) doesn't operate like that. Need new measures that are applicable to a club's individual position rather than the blanket arrangement that's just been overturned. | |

Rushed in, mid season - with ill thought out caps on squad sizes etc Was never workable for the clubs coming down, plus means that smaller clubs could still get themselves in a world of trouble at the rates Something will change, but it needs to be done in conjunction with all the stakeholders involved and properly | |

L1 and L2 - i.e. the SCMP were done in real time. The league wouldn't let you register contracts without proof of evidence that your cup run (as an e.g.) had brought in enough money to increase turnover etc | |

Doesn't League One already have a rule where you can only spend 60% of Turnover? I believe it's 75% for recently relegated sides | |

That type of American system isn't appropriate in a competition with relegation/promotion. Realistically, at this level you have such a disparity in club sizes. You have the likes of us and Sunderland that are effectively top half Championship clubs in all but on-pitch performance competing with teams like Accrington who are effectively non-league clubs that have over performed.
