Burnley was receiving their final parachute payment of £8M , they could have been screwed next season having to compete in a much tougher league with Fulham , Norwich and Cardiff all receiving £23M as their first parachute payment.

How many of the clubs who voted for it knew they could flout the rules with creative accountancy on sponsorship and/or take the chance of ignoring the guidelines altogether to achieve promotion because the sanctions are a pittance in comparison to copping £120M ?

So what will happen if the Football League calls for a EGM in the off season and moves the goalposts on FFP due to the large increase in parachute payments ?
