£30000 windfall for accrington

Birmingham city immediate return to the premier league means they will not collect their second parachute payment from the premier league instead the £11.2m is paid to the teams they are leaving behind with championship teams receiving £400,000 each and smaller pay outs for league one clubs who get £50,000 each and league two clubs getting £30,000 each.

As I said in another thread, lets support Reading through to the Play off final and hope they win. We'll have enough to buy Keiran Charnock from Peterborough without having to tax Liz too much with the 50/50 draw

I know Birmingham don't get the second parachute payment, but I didn't know it was spread out amongst the football league teams including leagues one and two. If true, it will be very nice for the club. Perhaps on the FA or FL websites? Maybe someone will link it soon

Just had a quick scout around, but cannot find anything. Maybe it's just common knowledge as it will have happened before....

Can't wait for Baggy to see this...

I suppose people who support Sheffield Wednesday and Accrington Stanley now have two more reasons to be happy that it was Birmingham who clinched the second automatic promotion spot as opposed to another team whose parachute payments would have lapsed at the end of this season.

No excuse for reading it though, if I go in a shop that sells the scum I put a bundle of Daily Stars or Mirrors on top in the hope a scum reader will think there are none and buy something else.
