To me a tax for very rich teams is a possible option, if it is directed to hit someone who is trying to exploit a loophole in the game.
On the other hand don't forget that finances are one of those crucial features of a sport management game, so the best managers are also able to accumulate and save large amounts of cash to spend in a planned way. So if it is maybe a good idea to hit a "malicious" use of money, it is for sure an error to penalize indiscriminately every single manager trying to accumulate money perhaps for replace a group of old stars about to retire. Take also into account that if you will limit the financial power of EVERY SINGLE team in a GENERALIZED manner it will be much harder for those teams not engaged in any match during the final weeks of the season to avoid bankruptcy. |

Agreed, this seems more like something to combat day trading than something to impact the assets of rich teams. That's okay...maybe that's the intent.

I was on my bike yesterday and I suddenly I had a great idea regarding this. Not sure if it's been mentioned before but a salary / transfer money cap would be really useful.
This would be a formula current salary + bank account. The more you spend right now the less you can spend in the future. Basically mimicking the cap system of the NFL right now. You want to spend big to go for the throphy, fine but it will cost you in the future. Obviously you need to set a sensible limit on when these limits will kick in but that is another discussion. Good idea? |

So for example, instead of setting a strict salary cap at $8M per u p d a t e for one season you'd want a cap set at $40M for 5 seasons and a team could spend $10M for 3 seasons and then they'd only be able to spend $5M the following 2 seasons?

Yes sort of. The beauty is that this gives Pete complete control of the economy if this needs balancing in-game (as it happens in the NFL). Need more cash flow, up the cap etc. This would basically take away the advantage the very rich teams have that if they make wrong decisions they can buy themselves out of it. An addition could be that saved cap space can be partially reinvested in the future. Lots of options here but I really like the elegance of it as it's not a hard , permanent cap and allows room for people to still make strategic decisions on how to use their income. |

Interesting idea since it seems to match Pete's vision that it's OK to overspend for a few seasons but not too many.

I would certainly be in favour of this. It seems like a sound plan giving Pete overall control whilst at the same time allowing managers some flexibility when they need it.

The toughest part: finding a limit...
