One of the main functions of the salary cap in the U.S. is ensuring the owners spend the MINIMUM amount of their TV money & don’t pocket all of it. The clever teams can find ways around the top of the cap through bonuses that alter that player’s contract’s cap hit per season. It is very very complicated but one of the primary functions is to ensure the minimum percentage is spent and teams remain competitive. Some teams remain terrible but that’s down to incompetence & fans knowing it’s designed for parity they put pressure on the owners to change what they’re doing.
The only problem I see is that the top players will move overseas if other leagues don’t have a similar cap.
I think any type of salary cap, no matter how it is dressed up as not being that. Would be a disaster. It's as though they want to punish the premier league for being so successful.
American sports leagues can set caps without worrying, because there isnt massive competition outside of NBA and NFL, for example.
It only limits how big the game can get. There’s a reason the prem is so big and if players can get a higher wage somewhere else then they’ll go somewhere else. This is just playing into Saudi Arabia’s hands and is just stupid to do.
As an Australian we have salary caps in all our major codes. What it does is it levels the playing field and makes the competition fairer in terms of the bottom teams have an equal chance to compete for titles. The richer clubs generally are more successful but it is a better system. The negatives are that clubs that are successful can't retain players. Success forces them to offload players as other clubs have to offer inflated prices to recruit. This really sucks for team loyalty or from a fan perspective as tribalism goes out the window. You have a bunch of players that you develop through your pathways programs and you have to let them go instead of having them as squad players. Like anything there is pro's and cons. I think under that system clubs should have dispensations for producing players and have the opportunity to retain them from long term loyalty.
Simon, the businessman, arguing against market forces what a genius.
The reason the cap (and draft) works in America is because the major league owners there enjoy operating as legal monopolies. This is with the slight exception of ice hockey. If you're a young talent in American football or baseball you either play for the NFL or MLB or you wash dishes. That's not the same in football where if you don't like the best offers in one country (including America) you can shop your services around the world.
Performance related pay?
Hard salary cap lmao it will never happen. The players are mercenaries and would go to Saudi or another league paying high wages.
Jim white nodding his head like he knows what Simon is saying haha
Setting it as a % of club revenue defeats the purpose of a cap as the intention is to level the playing field between the clubs. I think it would be really interesting as it could break the strangle hold the top clubs have on success.
If the Premier League ever approved this it would be so silly. Have a look at how well the La Liga is doing after they introduced it… not to mention the Saudi pro league. It’s essentially handing over the top spot to them.
That 70% cap keeps the small clubs small and the big clubs big ...
So basically the gap between the big clubs and the smaller clubs will grow if this happens meaning the league wont be as competitive
Salary cap, Cost cap what ever you call it is the worst thing you can do, just look at F1 what a cost cap creates boring season, 0 competition cause your locked in and screwed until the next year. if they did this city domination will be even greater since they have the most financial muscles to flex compared to anyone else in the league due to there revenue over the last few years they can abuse it before it kicks in and create an even stronger team
would be great for the leagues and sport. But I would be stunned if it ever happened. It would either be set at a level which keeps the status quo, or it would just drive a super league break away into action even quicker.
So long as PL clubs remain in Profit does it matter - like paying Tom Cruise £100m for one film....but if that film makes £300m profit, why dies it matter ? When it DOES matter is if 15 out of 20 clubs are posting losses. Anyone know the facts on this ?
Maybe we should cap bankers salary, MP’s salaries, Can you legally cap anyone’s salaries, one for the lawyers
Should go to a loxery tax system like MLB. It is basically a self imposed salary cap and if owners choose to go over that limit they have to pay a 20 to 100 million fee or "tax" depending on how many seasons their team has been above the cap and after 3 season teams have to be below the cap
