Listening to chairman's interview and us already overspending on what they think the cap would be so we need to save 75k
so next year Hughes Taylor houghton that type of player wouldn't be in squad we would have maybe 22/23 players and then use loan system
have I got that right ?
how do Newcastle go as there actual finances are shot so do York use there own salary cap to prop up Newcastle
Typical RFL again, they are saying its coming in next year but haven't announced how much it is yet. So once again how can clubs plan recruitment for 2027. As some players are on 2/3 year deals. It should be phased in and be from 2028, to not have a figure for 2027 at this stage is ridiculous.
Last minute RFL in the last 12 months........ no confirmed Championship league format, no fixture list, no plan for the 1895 Cup, no final venue announced for the 1895 Cup final, still no idea of if/how anyone will be promoted to SL next season. It really really is a disgrace.
But yes a salary cap for the Championship makes sense is phased in over a couple of years and announced way in advance. The worry for me is London will replace Huddersfield and then the draw bridge will be pulled up. Leaving us in 15th place but stuck in the Championship.
On an interesting side note I read it as we are spending £575,000 on the squad (£75k over a proposed £500k cap), so for 26 players thats works out at £22k each. Obviously some of the League 1 signings and young lads will be on less and the likes of Abdul, Gilmore and Owens a lot more.
You would think done properly if players have already signed multiple year deals then there would be some sort of dispensation for the 1st year or so.
