I think we’d come straight back up given the resources we’d have.
Problem then being we’d be signing worse players than if we stay up, so you’re setting yourself back a few years.

There’s technically no such thing as a relegation clause.
However, I’m sure many have clauses in their contract that specify a lower wage when playing in League One.

That is high level pedantry
FfP rules in league one are very different to the Championship

Salary Cap Management Protocol. You can spend a certain amount of turnover (I think 75%) on salaries; long term contracts from pre relegation don’t count.
It’s easier for owners to inject cash too.
Thanks. What about the salary cap in League One. Can we navigate this due to our larger revenue?

60 % I think, but you can exclude players recruited on long term contracts prior to relegation I e Buchanan, Sanderson, Bielik,
BlueSteveThanks. What about the salary cap in League One. Can we navigate this due to our larger revenue?
As it’s a ratio based on wages to revenue, it’s kinda explicit that higher revenue equals higher allowable wages innit?

It is 60%
Bearing in mind we’re probably around the 140% mark right now, even with exclusions it’s gonna be interesting.
I'm guessing the Knighthead park deal will contribute towards turnover in League One.

Yes but as you hinted above, you can inject equity so essentially if you have enough money (which Knighthead do) you can spend what you want.
Only as a "gift" rather than equity or a loan though unless I read it wrong?
Bluenose27All that is correct, but I feel we’ll need to buy an entire new squad, as the dead wood needs replacing and most of our better players will leave as we drop into league 1. So we’ll be heavily reliant on Gardner and his gurus, and hope that he actually earns his keep by identifying players that aren’t injury prone, weak mentally and physically or journeymen
I keep reading about the "dead wood" on this forum...... But looking at yesterday's starting Eleven, weren't 9 of them brought in this season ?
Tom TheProject BradyTom TheProject BradyMaybe League One will not be as bad as many are making out - not that I want relegation.Don't be silly, relegation will turn our ffp hole into a chasm. Top whack for Tyler Roberts et al, in division 3 is a scary thought.
It won’t really because League One P&S rules are much more lax than in the Championship. Owners are essentially allowed to inject cash as revenue in L1.
Relegation will be an absolute disaster, whether we can buy our way out of it or not.
We do not want to go into a League One season with less than half a squad, meaning we’d have to fill the spaces with League One players on 3 year deals and hope they can cut it in the Championship should we get promoted.
Ipswich haven't done too bad with that strategy x
Ipswich did spend 4 seasons in League One to build that squad though and they didn’t even go up as champions either
We have lost so many games over the last decade I’m not convinced we’re suddenly going to change the mentality of the club in less than 12 months to win enough games to get promoted
No matter how much money we have relegation would be a total disaster, it would set us back 2-3 years minimum
