Sick to death of obscene wages. Wages to turnover should be 60%. Just can't understand why that isn't rule in epl & efl.

Could get rid of the ridiculous parachute payments too if this was done.

The EFL does have a wages to turnover rule set at 60%.

The Championship doesn't use it, but the EFL covers 3 different leagues. Its 60% for League 1 and even lower at 55% for League 2.

It wouldn’t work, especially in the Championship, because parachute payments would have a bigger impact. It’s all well and good until we can’t pay or retain our best players because a relegated club has more cap space than us to use up. 

It also leads to a dry up in worthwhile investment, because owners are so restricted in their ability to impact clubs. Premier League clubs are thriving, most of them make huge profits. Championship clubs are typically losing money as the Premier League continues to grow and market value in player wages increase. League One and League Two clubs are seeing more and more serious issues year on year. The financial restrictions, regardless of how they’re dressed up, do a hell of a lot more damage than good.

I didnt say i agreed with a wage cap. I just pointed out that the efl already had a rule in which it was implemented.

A private company can pay its employees whatever it likes for me.

We cant keep our best players anyway - we still have to sell them to meet our ffp obligations. We are already slashing our wage bill to try and meet ffp as well.

The thing i like about league 1 and 2 is that transfer fees dont count towards any kind of ffp rules - they can spend what they want in that regard.

Sort of, but if relegated from the Championship to League 1 that cap is increased to 75% for one year. Owners can also donate as much as they want and it'll be included within the turnover figure.

Given owners can donate as much as they want in League 1 and 2, the impact of parachute payments would be minimised

If wages were fixed at 60% of whatever the income is then parachute payments could be scrapped.

On relegation from the prem a teams wages would plummet automatically to be within 60% of the new reduced turnover.

Much fairer for all club in the championship.
