Not us but champions-elect ManC. Their bonfire well pissed-on by Chelsea with a last minute winner! edit: just read there were 100's of fans at the Etihad to celebrate!
a couple of weeks back, working on the assumption that the top three divisions would be won by man city, norwich, and us, i wondered when the last time three of the divisions had been won by teams with the same - for want of a better word - surname. i can't see man city not finishing top this season. so i started looking, but it didn't take long. in 2019, man city won the prem and norwich won the championship, both same as this season. lincoln won league two. i did look back a bit further, but not much. leicester won league one in 2009, the championship in 2014, and the premier league in 2016. we should follow their lead, but without waiting five yearsl in the championship.
Where did you hear that? There is no prize money for winning or coming second. It was reported promotion will cost Peterborough United £1.2 million in bonuses and payments.
As far as I'm aware, there's no prize money for winning any league, other than the Premier League (where ever club gets an extra payment based on league position).
I think all clubs in L1 get around 1.2m regardless of where they finish. No prizes for winning playoff final either I believe.
a little disappointed that we didn't end as top scorers (except away), but that's only a small item on the wish list.
Think it was £1.47 million for each club in League 1. The prize for winning promotion or the play off final at any level is the guaranteed increase you get in the higher division the following year. Not a lot at lower levels until it comes to the silly money for getting into the PL.
I just have this because I found it for someone on Facebook earlier... One teams get a basic award of £732,000 and a solidarity payment of £675,000, so a total of £1,407,000. In addition, League One clubs get £30,000 for hosting a Sky live clash and a fixed £10,000 fee for an away game.
