steelcityowlsfan Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Surely £20 million is too low? While I am in favour of a salary cap, to challenge consistently and be in a good position to go up, surely £50 million is more appropriate? I should stress this hasn’t been agreed and clubs are due to meet again next month. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ferkorf Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Absolutely brilliant idea and much needed! But as stated above only if parachute payment clubs arent exempt. I would like a cap on how much you can spend on transfers aswell across all leagues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parachute payments, salary caps and FFP it's all a bag ofshite. They should scrap the lot and let nature takes its course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puts them in a difficult position if their wage bill exceeds £20,000,000 and they have plays on long contracts. It would just mean clubs getting relegated will more likely bounce straight back as they can have higher wage bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Salary cap will just push up transfer fees if they arent controlled as well. Good if premiership failures are made to keep to same rules as everyone else though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightbelow Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 clubs getting promoted would need a total new squad to compete in the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be wrote in all contracts that all wages drop if relegated then do away with stupid parachute payments 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would just make premier League Vs EFL gulf immense and solve nothing, parachute clubs likely exempt and would end up closed shop. Squad limits is way to go.

Lord Snooty Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I'd like to see a cap on wages and fees. But unless it encompasses all English League divisions it won't achieve anything. IMO. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 The richer clubs / failure payments will still succeed by throwing other huge incentives into deals for players, that aren't classed as wages. Houses, cars, sponsorship deals, endorsements etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is some exemption for clubs relegated from Premier league then the parachute payments should be used soley to fund any excess and not available for transfers.

If there is any exceptions then rules are just at idiotic at current ones. Salary cap should not be a fixed number it should be a fixed % of turnover and parachute payments should be abolished and instead added to money distributed across the EFL. Then you have a fair system. There should be a 3 year window to transition into the new rules to allow premier League clubs to arrange contracts around relegation Edited February 27, 2020 by wellbeaten-the-owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
