Quote ="wrencat1873"For Championship clubs to compete more evenly, we have to close the funding gap between the top two ">divisions.'" This. The funding has to be as equal as possible, and there has to be one salary cap. Otherwise P&R is just an illusion that puts clubs in danger of over-stretching themselves. I love the new system, but the funding gap definitely needs addressing asap

Quote ="mark_m"Warrington and others are running an U23s team next ">season.'" IIRC they're proposing to play some U23 friendlies. Bit different to running a full time U23 team over the duration of a league season, which would need an additional 10-15 players on top of the current first team and Academy squads.

Quote ="Perry"Then the penny finally dropped with everyone that licensing was a stitch up, so they came up with the latest sophistry to pull the wool over everybody's eyes. It looks like P&R, but I'm willing to wager that no P&R will take place under this ">system.'" I reckon it will, sooner or later. Bradford weren't a million miles away and we've seen in various cup ties that the top championship sides can manage the odd upset against lower SL opposition in a one-off game.

Close, but no cigar. I admire your optimism, but I still think the deck is stacked a bit too heavily.
