That's correct, although for those spending under the maximum £1.65 million ?? this was done by calculating projected spend and basing expenditure on this budget. Again IIRC, it was akin to incorrectly budgeting average attendance by 465 per home game.
So, rightly punished and also, deduction correctly reduced on appeal.
And for the benefit of your "friend" with his "war and peace" post (it was rather long). Trinity haven't bust the cap since and with how the calculation currently works are probably not in a position to do so.
Mind you, it was in 2001.
We'll be going back to pre SL days soon and may have to mention Uncle Mo and the sale of Central Park
