with the news of watford running into trouble, another football league club is under threat. Do you think that a sallary cap should be introduced in the championship and lower in order to force clubs to keep their fianances in check so fans aren't in risk of being left clubless? or would this cause all the best football league players to go abroad? would it make competition more fair, so big clubs who come down can't buy their way back up?
discusss!

in my opinion, footballers wages are ridiculously high
on average £3 a second is just jaw-dropping
so yeah, probably that and *is about to get flamed* they should use a bit of the money for real jobs... ie army lol"There are only two important days in your life: the day you are born, and the day you find out why."

the amount of money generated by football is enormous. i'd rather the money gathered from sky, tickets, merchandise etc goes to the players than anybody else. however, i am bias as i'm a football fan so i'd rather see money in football than any other sport, as it gains more popularity.

Only if FIFA introduced it. If it was just us everyone would hop off overseas, and we'd lose our reputation as a great league and footballing country. Overseas companies wont pay for merchandise, people wont pay for TV subscriptions... It's better for football that it's no cap, or a complete cap, worldwide.

no, because then all the premier league teams would buy them for cheaper wages than what they could have without a salary cap.
