Quote: J20 "Pretty sure it's only 50% of their cap that doesn't count, not the whole thing (though not 100%).
From what I heard / read sounded like he was on about the cap not finance and that contracts may be reduced due to cap reasons not the fact we can' afford them!
It's not right but tbf, with an under 21's we technically double are playing pool so they will ceratinly cap that somehow!'"
From current salary cap regulations [
rlhttps://www.therfl.co.uk/clientdocs/Operational%20Rules%20Part%205.pdfrl ]
Quote: J20 "The Salary Cap, finite upper limit, for 2009 has been set at £400k for NL1 and £200k for NL2
(excluding payments to players detailed under Section 7 – Non-Salary Cap Costs).'"
They haven't bothered to get the names right but that looks like a lower cap for Championship One to me.
Quote: J20 "7.3 Costs for those players under 21 who are eligible to play in the academy teams are to be
excluded from the Salary Cap Costs. For the avoidance of doubt this means players
need to be under 21 years of age on August 31st 2008. However there is no credit
granted against Salary Cap cost for U21 players loaned out to other clubs see 6.4.2
above.'"
Under 21s are completely excluded, basically.
