Matthews would be the best RB in this league.
Its whether we want to invest one of our senior spaces on a RB. I personally think we should.
This new rule is absolutely pathetic. Whilst it may close the gap in League one, it’s going to be ridiculously hard for us to build any momentum with the wage caps.Just our luck really.2 -
Matthews is great at going forward though, maybe not defensively as a wing-back but he was one of our best crossers into the box last seasonLeuth said:You won't find a better defensive RB than Matthews. Maybe Bowyer fancies a more attacking one? Tbh if be surprised if Matthews isn't his priority though7 -
Matthews is excellent but maybe in Championship than L1, as he hardly assists? I find similar with Pratley too regarding being a better Championship player too.0

Agree entirely, further to allow the players to grow, or at least develop into a style that we play and be experts.ForeverAddickted said:
Whilst its difficult with the Salary Cap its also important that we try to build a solid squad so Gallen and Bowyer arent forced to rebuild every summerobjectivecafc said:It's a game. Matthews Vs any right back loan except the fella from Norwich is a no brainer.
Matthews is quality, proven last year with us! A loan signing is always a gamble.
Only works if we are signing someone new ( also a gamble Vs a loan)
The need to discuss salary cap Vs a sure thing is null and void.
But as with an ambitious club under performing, we will need to strengthen significantly everytime we progress to underpin it.

He has pace and a good engine. Supports his winger well but won't get to the byline or threaten the box much. This doesn't really matter though as 1v1 he's as good as prime SollyForeverAddickted said:

Better the devil you know, grass isn’t always greener, which ever is appropriate. Get Matthews done it would have to be a hell of a signing to beat him at RB in league one.9

Anything from anyone on the recent trialists?

We do have a hole at right back and I would be amazed if Bowyer wasn't looking for one. I don't know what is going on with Matthews as I expected him to be our first signing!0

Ruben Carvalho
Matty Taylor
Stan Asomugha
For Taylor didn't someone say he was wearing the 6 so more likely a CB? Is it Steven Taylor or a coincidence?0 -
This 100%. A wage cap is fine, but should be based on income or turnover, not just some made up number. No wonder all the "small" clubs voted for it.killerandflash said:
But surely richer teams should be allowed to spend more if they're genuinely richer due to having more fans and thus more income?ForeverAddickted said:
Yes its certainly needed, especially at this level and actually in some ways it would be great if we saw a top six of Accrington | Charlton | Rochdale | Fleetwood | Portsmouth | CreweSage said:
Do you see this cap lasting? It’s a good idea, but personally think in the footballing world, it’s far too low in order to compete and then survive enough in the Championship when clubs get promoted.ForeverAddickted said:
I think it could well be the case mate... e.g. if Pearce is on £4k he doesnt count towards the cap FOR NOW!!Sage said:I am sure Phillips does count as a maximum of, I think, £2k p/w meaning we can bring in another player should he leave. Otherwise you’re saying that the only players that count in the cap are the ones we have signed so far, which is wrong.
With his deal up in the summer if we want to offer him a new deal we'd only be able to offer him a deal that falls in line with the cap - Same with Doughty, we can offer him what he wants for now as he's an U21 but the moment he gets too old (if god forbid we're still at this level) then that salary impacts the rest of the squad
£4mil a year is still around £4k a week for 19-20 senior pros. Just makes it that little bit more level.
Would mean that the cap has rightfully created a more level playing field when Football shouldnt be dictated by how rich you are as a side
The trouble is its also come in at the wrong level first - FIFA / UEFA need to grow a pair and force every league to implement something starting at the top and then going down... Like you say its great having something in place now but then when we go into the Championship we'll potentially need a massive overhaul of the squad again just to try and survive!! - Get relegated because the gamble didnt pay off and the reverse all but happens again where we maybe have to start selling or releasing players (out of contract) where we already fall foul of the cap
If Accrington average 3,000 supporters and Sunderland 30,000, it seems bizarre that both would be restricted to spending the same amount. With the same wage bill, Sunderland could end up possibly stuck in L1, but making a massive profit for the owner.
I've said it before but I'd forget the wage cap & just bring in the players we needed. Obviously not pay over the top but if we need 8 players then bring them in. Let the EFL fine us or whatever they think is a "fair" punishment - then we appeal & drag it out for months like Sheff Wed (who just fucking cheated & got away with it)
boils my piss.
And who & when was this voted on ? Did all 72 leagues clubs vote or just Leagues 1&2 ? And was it once we had been relegated or before ?4 -
