How can the L1 salary capable double the L2 salary cap if the L2 cap is 55%. You cant have a £££s limit, it can only be workable as a% of income.

Given the nature of the game, it is yet again a cap on the aspirations of the working class. When this is all over, the rich will have got richer and it will be paid back by the minions. This government are sickly in their praise of public sector workers, when almost all of them voted to not give nurses etc a pay rise during austerity. Once, the cannon fodder have served their purpose, we will be the ones to be penalised and will be made to pay back the mega rich. Football is a short career. Wages should not be cut.

Maybe there’s a way they can do some training for work after football during their career. I know many do coaching etc and was it Alan Marriott trained to be a sparky in the last part of his time with us but I wonder if the model could be changed so that they all did some kind of vocational training as well.

The Championship make it harder to do so, but Derby and Sheff Weds have "sold" their stadiums to get round the rules there.
I would hazard a guess that there are players at League 2 level on laughable amounts when you compare it to their actual ability.
