Taken from the premier league web site. 50% of total money goes on an equal share basis to the 20 FA Premier League clubs, while relegated clubs also receive some of this money in the form of a parachute payment. 25% of the money is paid as facility fees, which are determined by the number of appearances on television. 25% is paid in merit payments, determined by the position that a club finished in the league. |

Yes. They are spread over two seasons and amount to somewhere in the region of £16m-£18m. More information is available on the FA website. |

Reading the reports about Hoddle staying at Wolves, I noticed that their parachute payments had just finished. Consequently there is currently an awful lot of cost-cutting there at the moment. If Blues want any lessons on the importance of bouncing back straight away, they've got one there. ;) |
