How much is it worth if we get promoted.

Mon Feb 18, 2013 11:46 pm

I know with the parachute payments over 4 years that the financial rewards are roughly 90 million for the team that wins the play off final but does anyone know how much the teams that get automatic promotion get and how the finances equate?.

I am just asking out of curiosity so please no negative rebranding comments.

Yes Allen is correct, it's around the £60m mark. But expenditure increases almost at the same rate, so "worth" is probably not the greatest way to put it.

I think its worth more than that from next season as the television money has increased astronomically.

Sponsorship is included in that figure. Although every club is different it's an average, and tied into the figure as is merchandise.

This is correct. The 1st place team this season recieve £60m tv and prize money. The team in 20th next season recieve £62m. That is why nobody wants relegation from prem this season!

Correct, now i don't know the exact figures but the package as a whole goes up from next season, for example, when we lost the play off final it would have been worth a minimum of £90 million to us, that is if we went straight back down and including the next four years parachute payments, from next season the parachute payments are only paid over three years but are worth about £120 million. (approx)

I genuinely dont think we will get relegated - once we are promoted.

We have the right people in charge to ensure continued success and I genuinely believe we will continue to be a top 10 Premiership side.

With that our finances will improve dramatically and, with our excellent fan base, we can only go on to bigger and better things.

When we get promoted some will say that we have achieved what we have aimed for. I disagree. When we get promoted it will just be the START. It will be the start of many fruitful years

Premier League TV rights set to top £5bn for first time• Clubs set for huge hike from 2013-14 season
• Final overseas deals to be concluded next month

Premier League clubs are in line for a huge hike in television income from next season, with revenue from domestic and global TV rights deals on course to top £5bn by the time the final overseas contracts are tied up next month.

On top of the blockbuster £3.018bn deal announced in June for domestic live rights with Sky and BT for the three seasons from 2013-14, and the £178m banked from the BBC for Match of the Day highlights, the Premier League is well on course to improve on the £1.4bn it brought in from overseas broadcasters under the current deal.

If the total revenue breaks through the £5bn barrier as expected, the amount that the title-winning club receives from 2013-14 is likely to top £100m for the first time.

Premier League clubs will be updated on the latest deals to be signed at a meeting this week, when they will also discuss proposals to try to introduce a domestic version of Uefa's Financial Fair Play policy or other cost-control measures such as a restriction on wage growth.

The hike in income will be cheered by clubs trying to balance their budgets to comply with Uefa's Financial Fair Play rules and looking to exploit their commercial potential around the world, but will also increase fears that it will simply be passed on to players in the form of increased wages.

The existing TV deals, which run to the end of this season, themselves marked a huge increase in overseas income from £650m for the previous three years to around £1.4bn for 2010 to 2013. In total the current deals are worth around £3.5bn, meaning that the Premier League clubs are on course to collectively achieve an uplift of more than £500m a year.

Overseas income is shared out on an equal basis between all 20 clubs, while income from domestic rights is allocated according to a sliding scale based on league position and the number of appearances on TV. Just as the exponential rise in domestic income has been driven by competition between Sky and various challengers over the past 20 years, so the same process is starting to play out across the world.
