Great idea
...but like the article says, how does one justify which team should receive more money from the pool?...And what if the club is able to afford exceeding the salary cap as well as pay the taxes charged? True, the smaller,less richer teams receives support from the pool, but it might make the truly rich teams,..better? 
As opposed to? Having this tax would directly increase rich clubs' wage bill by 40%. Maybe they would be more mindful before offering 100k PW contracts knowing that it would actually cost them 140 instead. The only worry is that rich club with a rich fanbase (Chelsea, Man U, etc.) would counter this by increasing their ticket and merchandise prices. At the end of the day, the ones that suffer might be the not so well off fans (ME!!!).
