At least Graham Kelly isn't around
Apparently Doug Ellis had the deciding vote and voted against Swindon. Hes no longer around too!

Welcome my friend, it was only announced a couple of hours ago and not made much news anywhere yet.

Not sure what to make of a flat salary cap. I think linking it to turnover is the only fair way to do it, but a flat one would probably work to our advantage in league 1

I don't think a flat cap is the right way either.

I agree I think in L1 we could then compete, in L2 we would struggle with our current budget funding.

Watch Forest Green and Salford sink quickly if faced with a wage cap of just £2m especially when Rooney at Salfords wage alone is £250k and at FGR Christian Doige was on almost double that figure before his transfer in the Summer going by last seasons figures.

Blimey, they must have some cash behind them. He won't be on buttons wages and they must have known when they signed him we were unlikely to complete this season so they're committed to paying him a (presumably) decent wedge for a good chunk of time when they have no income and he won't be playing

Rooney was just an example of their wages as both the players I mentioned are no longer in L2 but both have been replaced with equally expensive replacements, Towell, Armstrong and Darren Gibson said to be on comparable wages when they all signed.

I guess they will still be able to afford them but they will have to rely on freebie loans from Man Utd etc to make up the balance of the team.

League 2 discussions continue, although I don't really see the point unless you can get consistency between all FL leagues?

Hearing that League 2 clubs have agreed to cancel remainder of season, & settle final table via a weighted points-per-game system with 2-legged play-off semi-finals and then a final.
Clubs can’t afford Covid19 tests and for players to come off furlough. Needs ratifying by board.
