Roy Whalley has spoken
about the possible changes to the Nationwide League and strongly backs the
plans to relegate those who do not manage their finances sensible.
Whalley told the press
"We could go bonkers and start lashing out money and build a fancy
new stadium and go £50 million in debt"
"Walsall is a club
that lives within its means. We honour our obligations and we pay our
creditors, and we feel clubs that don't are engaging in a form of
cheating"
Whalley's view is a
very well known one, and one that the majority of Saddlers fans back. The
Express and Star reports that West Bromwhich Albion will also be backing
the plans to punish those who go in to administration.
Other issues being
debated at this weeks League AGM include....
-
Expanding the
play-offs (WFC Against it)
-
Lowering the minimum
capacity from 6 to 4000 for new league clubs.
-
£120k parachute
payment if relegated from Div 1. 50k for Div 2.
-
Player salaries
going up and down depending on promotion and relegation
