Crazy even Sunderland got 90odd million and they went down.

Wonder how much we got with winning the league combined.

Crazy money.

Hopefully we invest it well.

I think you get around 35-40 million for finishing 1st, so it'd be about 190 million.

I think we only had three Saturday 3.00 kick offs at home and three away. Bournemouth was on a Monday at three and Sunderland was a Sunday. We went from 1st October Hull away next 3.00 kick off away was Stoke on the 18th March.

Good stuff. Put that together with the £100m or so we've made since January on transfers and the kitty is looking nice and healthy!

Big money, could really help our transfer market this summer.  Makes you think how vital that playoff-win payout to Huddersfield will be for their premier league campaign.

That cash is part of the 150m (merit payment), added to the equal portion for all 20 teams plus the amount for the games you're shown live. The premier league doesn't give out prize money per se, it's all TV money.

It's weird that we pocketed less than 4 million more than City despite winning the league. As Blue Exile says, it's all in the TV appearance money.

if we compare this to the spanish league, it would blow your mind.

the bottom club are making about 50+ million euros. the gap at the top and bottom is still poor, but getting better. barcelona are making around the same as everton ffs lol. i guess it doesn't mean a whole lot until the quality of the league improves.
