This system is still completely screwed up and unsustainable for the Championship.
Championship clubs allowed to spend 85% of income with a £33 top up over 3 seasons.
The restrictions for League 1 and 2 clubs are a bit better restricting 50% of turnover to be spent on wages, with Manager costs to now also be included within the SCMP Calculation.
However, County reported losses of £9.2m and on average league 1 clubs lost £5.5m.
How sustainable is that?
Royal blue, not faded blue!
