    L1 and L2 Owner Investment to be restricted from 2025/26 season

    Clubs in Leagues One and Two will be restricted in the amount of money put into the club from owners that can be spent on player wages and transfer fees from the 2025-26 season.

    Under new rules sides will only be able to spend a proportion of any investment over ?500,000.

    That will screw Wrexham if they don't go up, getting ready to pay Patrick Bamford ?40K per week!

    Never mind Wrexham, how will any L1/L2 team build a promotion squad in 25/26? The Bros need to get their wallets out in the close season (if that's allowed).
    I hope the Bros have been cute and any income from the Nest/Padel courts is not included in this rope around the neck.

    Why would anyone want to sign a sick note?

    I don't think he's been injured, just dropped?

    I wouldn't worry too much - since July 2019 when the Bros bought the club there has been ?500k of equity injection in August 2023 - it's not like they've been pumping ?millions in.

    Seen it all now.
    "The English Football League hope the changes will lower the financial losses some clubs in the third and fourth tier make."
    So any future Bournemouth is off the cards?
    Another nail in the coffin of lower league football.

    Is it just me who thinks this is very good for us?

    With all our revenue generated from padel, Nest etc and all of the capital expenditure is already out the way.

    Hope so. Pretty poor situation though.

    Is it? Might it not reward well run clubs instead of whoever won the most recent rich owner lottery?
