Last season: Each League Two club received £472,000 as a ‘basic award’ plus a £430,000 ‘solidarity payment’ from the Premier League. There is no 'table' where 10th get more than 11th, etc, etc.

I can't find this seasons amounts, anyone know where they might be hidden?

We might take that sort of money for granted, but for someone like Macclesfield coming up christ it's huge.

New EFL TV deal - I think about a 30% increase on the previous amount.

There should be a far bigger central funding amount from the PL. Its £3bn a season ffs.

Anybody have a idea what the parachute payments are when you get relegated to the conference, asking for a spireite friend.

Also what's the difference between L1/2 in terms of these payments?

Your second figure was the one that I remember being mentioned last season, not the larger one, which was apparently £700 more than we were receiving in the National League.

It used to be £250k when we went down for two seasons. I'm not sure whether that has increased or not.

Our financial director was saying in the programme that any central funding increase wasn't totally significant between L1 and L2.

Think it might be double that now? You did lose the cash to fund your academy, we self funded for 6 years while in the dungeon of despair.

Have a look at any windmills in your area and phone any number on the side, should be good for a few bob for a couple of seasons.

So, no one knows what the actual figure for 2017-2018 season is for each League Two side then. Strange none of us can find the answer either, or at least I can't.

It is.. As you know in the conference you get around 50k from vanerama sponsorship and that is all.
