When Tubbs leaves in Jan, they are screwed
Stop sitting on the fence Hils !!!!
I think its more to do with income/turnover rather than gate size. Even so it does seem strange as gate receipts must form the majority of income?
at the begining of the seasson their chairman stated that they an Escrow bank account (ring fenced) with cash in it to cover wages for two years. The amount included potential wage rasies should they be promoted.
He wasn't being big headed, but was answering a question on paying the players wages
Yeah that's the case but I don't get why/how that entitles them to pay above the salary cap.

I heard something about he buys players himself then "loans" them to the club..I don't know how true that is though.
Sounds to me like Tevez / West Ham x 24, but because its League 2 the FA care FA about it.I heard something about he buys players himself then "loans" them to the club..I don't know how true that is though.

Its "alleged" that Crawleys players are all on the £700-£1000 pw that will keep them within the turnover/budget/wages 60% thingy but they also receive £50k cash as a signing on bonus through there mysterious owners
As i say its "alleged" as the only ones who will know will be those concerned with running the club, the fact that someone, who may happen to be an odious fat Scotsman, has history of this is, of course, totally coincidental
Who mostly scarpered as soon as they could!Whatever it is Crawley are doing to get round the salary cap, it's a safe bet the FL won't do anything about it until they're as good as promoted.
Notts County breached the cap by several hundred per cent in their promotion season and I think the FL imposed a transfer embargo on them as a punishment - but only after they had already signed up what proved to be a promotion-winning squad.
