On the subject of money......

[monkeyhanger]

With the new format looking likely to be a two tier Prima-Donna - Chump-ionship set up, the financials need to worked out so we know the rules BEFORE the season starts. (Unlike the unannounced but inevitable relegation of 6 teams into a League they knew nothing about!!)

What will the money be for MOM, POM, Title winner etc. ?

Will the teams getting relegated from the Prem get a £30m parachute payment?

Will the team winning the Championship get £40m for getting into the Prem next season?

Having two tier money will make it near impossible to compete once back in the big time.........we need answers Mr FA Chairman.

The information regarding the 2 leagues has been posted on the Rules section of the website since the beginning.

The Championship Prize money will be higher than the money received by the The Premiership teams come end of season.

The gap between the teams in the two divisions is very small and in some cases, non existent. I am not going to start throwing money at teams because they are in the Championship, otherwise we end up with a see-saw effect constantly. Championship will be gaining abs at just as fast a rate as the Premiership teams, the only difference will be the money gained at the end of this season.

Fair enough to all points. Just wanted clarification.

Thankyou Mr Chairman.
