[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1175696, member: 73592"] Oh, I absolutely agree there, and I've been pretty vociferous in opposition when Bath have indulged in work-arounds for the cap in terms of not respecting the spirit of a contract, even if the wording (from basically, the moment Bruce Craig took over, sending players out on season-long loans etc). But I'm not sure I could convince myself that a transfer payment counts as "salary" - and after all, the salary cap is for players' salaries, not a club's expenditures. Of course, I'd like to see an element of financial fair play introduced as well, but I'd imagine that would require unanimous support from PRL, which would never, ever happen. [/QUOTE]
