I reckon it's unlikely we'll be the only league doing it by the time next summer comes round.

The Spanish have said they're not doing it...

The level of naivety shown by Peter Coats earlier was astounding, his only answer seemed to be to tell clubs they're not doing business after a specific date, completely ignoring things like release fee clauses and certain Spanish clubs refusing to take no for an answer. The timing for it to start next season is ludicrous to, there's only going be a month after the world cup finishes to sign players as I doubt clubs will be doing business before hand in case the players have storming world cups. So imo in short this isn't going to solve the problems of players bring unsettled and may make exorbitant transfers fees go even higher. Also our clubs are putting ourselves at a massive disadvantage to, what if Madrid or PSG sign a world class player and put players up for sale to cover it in the last week of their window , our clubs can't bid for them. The play off winners are going to be disadvantaged as are the team that finishes fourth who won't know if they've qualified for the champions league by the time the window shuts
