[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 165695"] No, there is a strict limit. However, there are clever loopholes which can be exploited. For example, older players can be signed up as player-coaches, reducing the amount they are paid as a member of the playing staff. Similarly, young players can sign dual registration with a club in a lower division, again cutting the amount their main club might pay them. And then there is also the 'rumour' of how teams like Leicester manage to afford so many top names. Apparently generous companies and other benefactors are willing to sponsor players, again reducing the amount they are actually paid by the club. Not that I would accuse our rival Tiggers of using any sort of underhand tactics to get ahead of course. [/QUOTE]
