Where's the money to increase to increase the cap? If clubs were increasing their revenue each year, then of course the cap should be increased. But it isn't, and apart from a few clubs, most don't have the means to pay more.
Put the incentive there over a 5yr - 10yr plan to incentivise clubs to go out there and generate that income
New owners/More investors - Better Marketing etc.
With in turn the ability to spend a proportion of that etc. so if we want to compete and say want to get to a Salary cap of 4million over the Short/Medium term i.e. 5yrs with an increase of say 300k per year over the next 5 years then clubs are going to have to increase their income/wealth to enable them to spend the 2.5/2.8/31.1 etc. etc. each year
They don't HAVE TO spend it, but it will give incentive for those that want to compete at the top to do so
IMO it's 10/15yrs of Stagnation that needs to be undone
