Agreed on Lapslie, there's no point loaning him out for free because then we can't spend his wages. Morgan, Vennings, Davison though, I'd like to see us picking up the wages.Oggy Red said:

I think L2 personally, I’d say NL if he was 17/18 but he’s 20 now. Colchester/Orient/Crawley/Southend. Sounds arrogant admittedly but he’s surely good enough to start for those sides.Dazzler21 said:
He needs a move above National League in my opinion, which could mean only able to recall in January...BR7_addick said:Morgan is crying out for a loan, genuinely believe he’d come back the real deal with the right move where he can plan 40 plus games without the pressure of Charlton.
Unless we loan him to NL til January then get in a player in January to support the squad and try to loan Albie to L2. He needs to be playing CAM for me.Morgan, Lapslie, Davison have championship experience and league 2 is the level we should be looking for.
1) The wretched wage cap if they're considered a senior player 21 and over. Loaning players for 'free' does not reduce our wage cap expenditure.
2) Any player loaned to a L2 side cannot be recalled until the next transfer window, if needed here.
Which is why Morgan, etc last season went beneath them to NL ..... where they can be recalled early.
After all, we're still paying their wages if they stay here.

Under 21s should be loaned on the basis of match time, which is what other clubs do with our loans - the more they play, the less you pay!cafcfan1990 said:

January is only 2 1/2 months away anyway, which isn't long. Normally there would be 4 months between the end of the summer window and the start of the next one0 -

I suppose the vote was before any new signings... Maybe their new signings mean they can't now squeeze him in and need to free up the £1,700 for another player or to improve an existing players contract.Leeds_Addick said:

Payments directly linked to a Club’s progression in cup competitions or promotion are excluded from the Cap, while any income generated from players going out on loan is deducted from the Club’s Salary Cap calculation.

No offence to Lapslie but I cannot imagine many clubs up for paying both a fee and wages for him, especially when they're likely to be under a cap themselves. That could work with Phillips though.Dazzler21 said:

Everton have just released Shani Tarashaj. Strange one that. Was thought to be a real prospect four years ago and then seems to have played progressively fewer games since then, culminating in not playing a single game on loan at an Eredivisie club who cut it short. I wonder if we would have a look at him, no idea if he's completely gone to pieces or just needs a fresh start. Striker/winger

I was thinking more like he plays for them for 'free' with a loan fee which will probably zero off his salary for us, not us ending in credit.cafcfan1990 said:

Not sure it would. He won't be part of their 22 man squad or entire side anymore so salary won't be included in cap. (I think)se9addick said:

At Peterborough last season, the two highest wage earners were Marcus Maddison (what ever happened to him ?)
and George Boyd.
The days of Catermole earning 50k a week in League 1 have gone. (He signed in premiership)
Will Griggs leaving Wigan for Sunderland on 31/1/19 deadline day for 4 million !
The above is why the cap was voted in.
Will Griggs knew he made a mistake in leaving (an article in a Wigan paper)
4 goals in 45 matches for the Wearsiders confirmed his loss of form.

Sunderland's average home gate last season (pre Covid break) was in the region of 30,000. Salford's was nearer 3,500 and they have a capacity of 5,106. If Salford go up then their cap will be the same as that of Sunderland next season. That doesn't seem fair.killerandflash said:

Couldn't the cap should be linked to revenue from previous season attendances? That way the cap will reflect actual money through the gate and not be influenced by money coming from the Man United boys and their backers as that will only be sustainable all the time they are around. Equally, you can't just take attendances into account without linking it to ticket sales because of "kids for a quid" type games artificially inflating these. There should still be a "floor and ceiling" to the cap but there has to be a differential.2 -

the ballot in League One for a £2.5m cap was tighter, with 16 clubs in favour, seven against and one withholding their vote
24 votes, 66% for, 29% against, 4% withheld.
I am not sure what the quorum required for passing a resolution is (curtailment of the season was >50% vote, but other votes have been a higher quorum) but just two clubs have held the position of power which has swung it in favour of the cap.
As I have read on here, Charlton were included in the vote as it was post-relegation, so I assume we were one of the 7 against.1 -

When Adam Rooney went to Salford in the National League from Aberdeen you knew the United old boys were paying top money at least for a striker. I assume they are doing similar in League 2.1 -

Perhaps they had an option on his contract that allowed them to terminate his contract without paying him off. Or perhaps he accepted cancellation of his deal without being paid off because he thinks he can find another/better deal as a free agent. Or maybe they negotiated a settlement that pays him a % of the salary that he would have been due if he stayed for the full season and that gives them some extra room under the cap.Richard J said:

My reading of the rules is that all contracted salary payments count towards the cap, whether you pay them weekly/monthly or pay them upfront (as in a contract termination).Basically, I’m not sure, but I don’t think you can just pay off players who have contracts and it not count towards your cap.3 -
If was still championship possibly yes. But A lot of people seem to keep forgetting about this cap or are being completely unrealistic. The guy would fit with Charlton as he has basically been injured almost 90% of his time out on loan which is why he was sent back one year yes one year early. He also was on 17,500 a week so don’t think he would sign for 2k a week somehow to a league one club. We need to focus on a striker in league 2 on bottom end of league one who may sell to us and be able to not have issues with salary cap. Or a loan for an unproven but talented prem 2 striker would be a much more realistic option.Garrymanilow said:Everton have just released Shani Tarashaj. Strange one that.

Why would he have to sign up for £2K per week? The cap is £2.5M per annum and I would imagine we have more than £104K (£2K x 52) of that remaining.FULLERpromise said:

Striker/wingerNot saying we should sign him, not sure I even know who he is, but the cap wouldn’t restrict us to £2K a week offers if we wanted to.2 -
Their current wage bill is already allegedly more than 1m over the league one cap........and they're in league 2.soapboxsam said:killerandflash said:
I'm not sure Sunderland are the reason why the cap was needed, as their finances and income bear no relation to those of the majority of L1 and L2 clubs.soapboxsam said:addick1956 said:
The new cap is clearly ageist , otherwise why boot out the old guy. I don't see it wasting.Leeds_Addick said:

The 35 year old ex Charlton youth player and Chatham born, is leaving the Posh.
The new normal is kicking in quickly now.
Bit of a weird thing to say imo when the Peterborough owner was one of the people to vote for the cap
Indeed why vote for it if this happens. Very like Brexit where everyone says "I didn't vote for that" if no deal happens.
At Peterborough last season, the two highest wage earners were Marcus Maddison (what ever happened to him ?)
and George Boyd.
The days of Catermole earning 50k a week in League 1 have gone. (He signed in premiership)
Will Griggs leaving Wigan for Sunderland on 31/1/19 deadline day for 4 million !
The above is why the cap was voted in.
Will Griggs knew he made a mistake in leaving (an article in a Wigan paper)
4 goals in 45 matches for the Wearsiders confirmed his loss of form.
It's clubs like Salford which are spending money which bears no relation to their income
Good point Killer.
When Adam Rooney went to Salford in the National League from Aberdeen you knew the United old boys were paying top money at least for a striker. I assume they are doing similar in League 2.
They supposedly trebled Andrade's wage when they signed him from Lincoln. They signed Towell from Brighton, Tom Elliott who was at Millwall, Ian Henderson who scored loads for Rochdale in league one, James Wilson from Aberdeen.
There's no way any of these are on an average league 2 wage. Most if not all, will be on more than the 2.5k a week league one average.
No idea how they're going to get round it next year.4 -
