No prize money!

Recommended Posts

Just read a report on the official site and it said that there is no prize money for finishing 1st or 2nd which i think is completely unfair!

Did anyone else know about this?

I know it''s a bloody scam, we would be better off finishing in the playoffs so we can make more money by going up via the playoffs! Well we wouldn''t but you know what I mean.

Just as well the News of Screws decided to help the coffers then by printing that story.

No prize money, nothing at all, that''s utter crap, had to double check this because it sounds a total farce, but alas it''s true.

I agree that it''s seems bad there is no prize money,

But there is another way of looking at it.

There are currently 72 teams plaing in the Coca-Cola League, This league is split into 3 divisions, So even if we win this division, we are in fact only finishing 25th in the entire league.

A bit strange this one. I emailed the Football League at the beginning of Feb re prize money and received the following:

 

Thank you for your email. 

Only the winners and runners-up in League One receive a specific amount (as
listed) – 3rd to 24th receive a basic award rather than a ladder payment.

Winners - £25,000, Runners-up - £10,000

Well the good thing is if Newcastle & WBA go up to the prem their parachute payments get shared between next years championship clubs instead of going to them, which is thought to be worth about £2-3million
