Salary caps are stupid as hell. I can't believe someone even mentioned that for soccer. Players have been getting paid large salaries for a long time now. That's not the issue. It's the transfer fees that are the problem. I don't care if a player gets over 100,000 pounds a week. I'm worried that owners are investing too much in transfer fees. Teams that are run by normal owners won't be able to turn down 30+ million offers. All the good players will be on a handful of teams and we'll have some sort of fantasy league then just for those teams. They need to change the way owners go about taking over teams. It should be done differently.

Well said Adi. I have a similar opinion. I don't mind people investing money in football or any sport for that matter, I certainly don't mind players being payed big money either. The thing I do not mind, but actually hate is that people like this guy treat these clubs as their toys and as Chunkie said, once they get bored with it, they'll just sell it and won't give a fuck anymore...  :down:

To learn to succeed, you must first learn to fail.
It's what you do that counts, but it's how you do it which separates you from the rest.
You can't have creativity unless you leave behind the bounded, the fixed, all the rules.
