League 1 salary clauses? 22:04 - Mar 18 with 3467 viewsHammersmithR

Do we know if Les and Lee have inserted salary clauses if we get relegated to League 1? We have some players on big contracts.

I would say that is very doubtful as the only way was up!

Not aware of the specifics, but im very sure every player would get their wages dropped by certain percentage if the club got relegated.

And obviously if the club got promoted, then the wages would increase, and visa versa.

Well it’ll be fun seeing the club trying to squeeze their wages into 70% of League One turnover.

It will be real easy so long as the owners are happy to pay for it, as owner funds are counted as turnover, so long as it's not a loan. Should it come to that, we could also pay off contracts for wasters without it affecting FFP.

That’s interesting, wasnt aware of that.

So rather than the constant worry of points deductions and adhering with the now ridiculously low £39m cumulative loss over three seasons, it’s possibly easier for the Board to build a competitive side for a club like ours in League One than it is in the Championship. If that’s true then the EFL have lost their minds.

On that basis, the Championship has to change their rules to match.

Yeah when I looked into it I did wonder whether it's the reason quite a lot of teams seem to do well coming up from League 1, if they have rich owners/money.

Off the top of my head the caveats would be: will the owners want to pay for it seeing as we can spend money and get worse quite frequently? How would our time in league 1 effect our FFP if/when we return? If we get relegated there's no guarantee that we get promoted anytime soon and would the owners stick around?

Some I imagine may have relegation release clauses, Willock, Chair and Dieng for example.

Not sure many players agree to such things as pay cuts in relation to failure.

So I doubt it.

Willock will be leaving on a free this summer if we go down, no chance we'd pay for the extra year

You start to wonder if we go down whether a clear out and players in from lower divisions who want to work their way up and have a more positive attitude wouldn’t be the worst thing ever?

Never knowingly right.

FFP rules in Leagues 1 and 2 are completely different to the one we have in the championship, they are a salary cap based on your turnover under something called the Salary Cap Management Protocol.

And you are allowed to go beyond it as long as the owner has equity.

Judging by their poor grasp of finances up to now, I very much doubt it.

I think the problem is Steve, that on being promoted back to The Championship, any of the League 1 allowed funding, is taken out of income for Championship EFL purposes.

Are we talking about the same people who didn't insert relegation clauses in the PL and saddled QPR with a £70m wage bill in the Championship?

This. Knowing something positive may come out of this pain...may be worth the pain .

I haven’t got a clue, but……

Call me old fashioned, but I’ll wager a few shillings that Les and Lee have no such clause in their contracts.

What’s going on?

We should be told
