Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs are all in favour. Suppose 2 league titles in the last 20 years between you might make you think.

I bet it’s income related, the Feckin rich clubs will get richer while the rest continue to get points deducted for trying to compete, hopefully they all feck off to this so called super league and if the FA grows some balls and bans them from our leagues for 10 years or more I would be all for that…

Voted for by PL clubs.
Problem is if that happened football will be dead. Apart from the fans of two clubs who's going to be watching say Leicester Vs Bournemouth. Unfortunately football needs the bigger teams.
Big teams have come and gone in the 100+ years, what the big teams want now is to be big in perpetuity.
spending cap should be same across all clubs regardless of income because if based on income that will freeze the big 6 forever, but we all know that won't happen (players and agents won't like it either).
when you have a flat spending cap your scouts and manager have to be good rather than going to the checkbook to solve a problem.

Some clubs could end up in serious debt if it’s 5 times the tv income of the bottom team. Looking at £500m spend a season which suits Newcastle, surprised Villa voted against it.
