I've always advocated that measures should be in place to curb the spending of football clubs. Not long ago there was a thread asking if we thought footballers were overpaid and I agreed they were. The average wage of footballers inflate like in no other industry. Niuchin was quick to point out a flaw in this system but nonetheless it's good to see that serious thought is being given to this issue. I may be a fan of Liverpool, amongst the richest clubs in the world but as a football fan, I don't like the way big clubs seem to be widening their gap at the top of the table. Average clubs can only cross their fingers and hope for some rich middle eastern Sheikh looking for a hobby to come along. How often has any club outside of the top four finished amongst them since the Premiership was introduced. How often has Barcelona and Real Madrid finished lower than fourth? Will anyone ever break the dominance of Ajax, PSV and to a lesser extent, Feyenoord? Will we see the likes of Hull challenge for the Premiership next season as Blackburn did a year after being promoted back in the day?

Even in F1, measures were put in place to level the playing field after Ferrari dominated for almost a decade. I don't know about the idea of luxury tax as I think the imposition of salary caps is the way to go.

I think they've considered this, I mean as it is clubs are facing a drop in attendance due to the current economic climate and are dropping ticket prices. At some point, fans will stop buying tickets and merchandise.
