I find it funny that we are desperate to spend more. It didn’t help us in the aftermath of relegation. Jon simply wasted the biggest advantage he had and is now annoyed that he has to raise money to spend it.

Allowing Championship owners to match the parachute payments of clubs relegated from the Prem would be a good starting point with this money set aside before the season begins. I’m in favour of a salary cap but this is an emotive topic especially as George Eastham is one of our club heroes. I like this idea. I’d also reduce the parachute payments dramatically after first year. Another idea might be to only allow newly promoted clubs to sign players with a relegation clause. Maybe 50% or something. For first 3 years in prem. Take pressure off if relegated?? I’d be in favour of compulsory relegation clauses and release fees but not for some clubs and not others. Just make them a thing in every players contract. |

Boro spent more than us after relegation and feels the same They are right to argue that if you have the funds then you should be able to spend it. All clubs have waited money on poor signings. It happens. |

Yeah if you just imposed it on promoted teams for say three years as the poster proposed you’d just make attracting players of the right calibre for the league even more difficult than it already is for them. Compulsory release fees work in other countries. They use some formula to do with age contract length and wages to come up with the figure it’s not arbitrary. |

It happens. Like us they didn’t score enough goals (under Karanka I think). It’s much easier for free scoring sides to get re promoted. Bournemouth, WBA, Norwich spring to mind. I know it’s naughty to mention it but is it a co incidence that WBA have struggled to get back up since they employed the capped crusader.🤣🤣🤣🤣 |

I wish there wasn't FFP or a transfer window. But if this was before the Coates ownership we would be arguing for FFP.
