Millions

Championship clubs get millons each from a pot of TV money plus extras when shown. League 1 and League 2 clubs get peanuts.

Most league 1 players get paid only about 20% of what some Norwich players earn.

But if Norwich go down then they will still have contracted players on truely massive wages (by league 1 standards).

There is no way that relegation would be good for biz. It would be a total disaster.
