Cap! Don’t forget that cap!

A player costing a few hundred thousand and above would expect a salary commensurate with that fee. Being only able to offer around £2500k pw isn’t going to do it.

Ah come on, you know the cap is largely irrelevant and those with money will just use the various loopholes such as inflated bonus payments for cup progression etc.

I see Rovers have lost their main striker, JCH, to another L1 club, Posh, for £1.2m.

They have already spent £1.2m of that replacing him with JCH from Bristol Rovers who scored more than a goal every other game for Rovers in the last 2 seasons.

That's a debatable one as the away their wealthy owner and your left with 5,000-6,000 crowds and no real history

No, rather than small club I would say they aren't one of the big clubs.

Similar size to Swindon, Oxford, Blackpool or Rovers but not in the Sunderland, Ipswich, Charlton size in our division.

Fair comment well put but I think that Peterborough United are a bigger club than Swindon Town

I don't. they just have better backing.

which comes back to how you define club size.

History seems to be something that is considered important by many. I tend to think that the here and now trumps this.

history is nice to reflect on, but irrelevant to the size argument to me too
