The Premier League is looking at a cap on a club\u2019s wage bill in order to keep the top flight competitive, Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish has said.<\/p>\n

The league is looking at a variety of ways to maintain competitive balance, including anchoring \u2013 capping the richest club\u2019s wage bills as a multiple of the television money earned by its bottom club.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs far as competitive balance (is concerned), people need to be bold,\u201d Parish said at the Leaders Week conference at Twickenham.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there is change afoot. UEFA\u2019s squad-cost caps are one idea. Maybe something that is a bit more rigid than that, with a hard cap at the top, that doesn\u2019t take turnover into account, where there are vagaries of how that turnover comes about.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are really positive conversations going on about it. We also have to be very careful because there are also unintended consequences. Hopefully we will get somewhere that will be beneficial, not just to the clubs in the Premier League but to the whole pyramid and their ability to compete.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are voting for our competitors to be able to do better and challenge us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Parish backed the league\u2019s decision to maintain the Saturday 3pm blackout in its next set of domestic television rights.<\/p>\n

The league issued an Invitation To Tender (ITT) on Wednesday, featuring an increase from 200 to around 270 matches but keeping the blackout intact.<\/p>\n

I think it is very important for participation and very important for attendance in the lower leagues, and culturally very important.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they made a good decision on keeping the 3pm (matches) off television,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it is very important for participation and very important for attendance in the lower leagues, and culturally very important.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Premier League also confirmed that all matches displaced to the Sunday 2pm slot due to clubs participating in the Europa League or the Europa Conference League on a Thursday night would now be televised.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s very frustrating for supporters when a game gets displaced, it\u2019s a big game, and there is maybe a lesser game on television. And that big game isn\u2019t on. So I think increasing the number of games is a positive. The packages have been constructed in a way that they should create good and healthy competition, which is what the consumers want.\u201d<\/p>\n
