Can anyone explain to me why there are these much discussed financial problems in the championship and not so much in L1? If anything they would be less reliance on gate receipts so I don’t fully understand.

Most league 1 clubs have 1-2 year player contracts and there is a bigger turnover of players at this level. |  |

I was about to say that a lot of L1 clubs have probably learnt to cut their cloth earlier, as shown by the shorter contracts, higher turnover and much lower fees/wages. Parachute payments and chasing the PL dream probably distorts that league more too. |  |

In the Championship you can still lose £39m across 3 seasons and be seen as ok under FFP.
Clubs chasing the Premier League simply gamble more and the league is woefully distorted by parachute payment clubs too.
The Championship rejected a salary limit like we have down in L1/2 this summer, which would have helped them be more sustainable |  | | |

The Championship scares the life out of me from a financial view point.
Hopefully we have a sustainable plan if we get to the 'promised land' of debt and administration!! |  |

I'm not sure this is the whole answer. I've shared the website you posted quite a few times before and nobody has any information to contradict it, even though nobody (including me) has actually seen the Protocol itself to check what the rules are. So on the /assumption/ that it's right, it says that injections of cash by owners are included within the definition of turnover. That means that as long as an owner is happy to pump money in (rather than merely loan it), the owner can put in whatever it likes in order to get round the 60% limit. So SCMP doesn't actually stop a megabucks owner who wants to bet the house on success. Which may actually be good for us... |  | | |
