Whilst of course player welfare should be paramount, can't help feeling that this will help the bigger clubs that of course have the most money to stockpile the most players.

That said, will it allow clubs like Man City and Chelsea to blood younger English players into their squads which will give them much needed first team football? Phil Foden for example.

At our level, not sure we'll see much of a change, many l2 and some l1 clubs really struggle to fill benches and I'm sure we've only fielded 3-6 subs in the past.

The only issue may be (and I think someone mentioned it before) is that it might negatively effect teams like us who like to play the ball by neutralising our ability to tire other teams out.

Not a fan of this in the PL. You already see teams unable to fill their squad with fit first team players then you have man city who have a 2nd starting XI of which most would walk into any club in europe.

Just look at City's bench for tonight. De Bruyne, Rodri, Laporte, Mahrez, Sterling, Zinchenko to name a few. Its bad enough 3 of those coming on, but 5?

You can still only use 5 subs in '3 goes', right?

The time wasting is moot anyway because all refs know and should be implementing around 30 seconds additional time for any subs made, along with any of the other usual stoppages.

Birmingham, Derby and Sheffield Wednesday are all possibly waiting on a 21 point deduction for their respective financial breaches.

Now, I wonder if the EFL are waiting for season’s end so they can deduct just enough points to ensure none of them actually get relegated.

Anything other than that will, undoubtedly, see appeals and impinge on any new season start date.

One other thing. The present % of turnover to wages spend presently at 60% isn’t that at all.

Wages are 60% of income PLUS 100% of owner injections PLUS 100% of player sales PLUS 100% of cup money.

So, in effect, no cap at all.

I don't think that can be right. Otherwise Derby, Wednesday and Villa wouldn't have had to go down the route of selling their ground to themselves to disguise losses. That's the whole point of why Derby and Wednesday have been charged - because they tried to disguise additional money being put in by the owners with spurious ground sales.
