Portsmouth owner-who's now come out and spoken against the salary cap, and from a club that became synonymous with getting heavily into debt to achieve success.
He very carefully dismisses the path they've come down and is doing the 'too big for this division' talk, plus he seems more interested in the huge wages gap opening up between L1 and the Championship-my advice would be to worry about that when you get there.

In his interview with the FSA (link supplied) he talks of " Robust mechanisms need to be in place to ensure that clubs ‘cheating’ or breaking governing body sustainability rules are dealt with severely and rapidly. There needs to be confidence in clubs that those not abiding by regulations are going to suffer the consequences and not be allowed to benefit ‘on the pitch’ via their actions." which seems entirely hypocritical given the interview, as it was the clubs who voted on this clear 'robust mechanism'.

The EFL clubs have three times now voted on 'robust mechanisms' and a salary cap seems to be last throw of the dice,but this seems like just another owner who wants it to go his clubs way,and so-it would appear-is supported by the FSA who campaign against the need for 'robust mechanisms' to be in place.

On Friday we launched our Sustain The Game! campaign and since then it has been endorsed by supporters and high-profile figures across the game – here Portsmouth chief executive Mark Catlin argues that regulation must be strengthened but there are no easy answers or “one size fits all” solutions…
