Is there ever any talk these days

about salary caps in football? Watching Leeds vs Man. City. just points out the
vast difference in ability that money buys.
Utimately sport is about competition and
the Premier League doesn't even seem competitive any more. NFL in my opinion is the most competitive league in the world pretty much due to a hard cap.
