Dint we introduce a wage cap a couple of years ago
Just a throw it out questionHow legally binding would having 8 home grown players be. How would it work. Would every club have to agree or can the league committee impose it. Would it not have implications for employment laws etcI’m all in favour of it I think it’s a great idea. I’d personally take it a bit further and have a minimum of home grown players in every match day squad
I think that lower division clubs are limited by FFP rules to their player wage budget being a certain percentage of the revenue.?

Under the new rules, if brought in, there will be a wage cap of £2.5m in LG1 irrespective of turnover.

If the EFL were indeed to limit the squad to 20 players of which 8 were are be from the club’s own academy then I think we are talking about a real new world and I approve 100%.It might take three years to build a squad to compete towards the top end of League One but how healthier football would be .Look through our current crop and all of a sudden the youngsters there can have real hope .

If you remember DF did the same before he 'moved' on.

You can't have it just to only 20 players. That'll surely not include youth.
A squad of 20 plus loans would be about right.
A lot of pro footballers may not be pro footballers for much longer.
