bassett one   440 #170 Posted January 23, 2020 to equal it all up,why cannot all teams spend the same as those with parachute payments,no more ,no less,then it would be a level playing field so to speak,everyone equal,BUT every team must show they can afford to spend the amounts they intend to spend each year,say the owners put up 3 years spending in the bank as proof,those unable to raise those amounts can enter there intentions and a annual amount,leaving it open to increase up to the max if they wish each year,making it fair to all.

I didn't think we stood a chance, Derby challenging it gives me hope but nothing has been proven, we'll cross that bridge if it happens and if it comes to a point deduction then so be it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
