Having been relegated from the Premier League twice in 3 years are QPR entitled to 2 lots of parachute payments? Or do they stop once you get promotion back to the Premier League? If they do stop when you get promoted, what happens to the money the league have put aside for such payments? Do other clubs benefit from it?

The payments stop on promotion, and are shared out amongst the teams which remain in the Championship. The old payments don't restart on relegation, only the new payments kick in.

So we all want Norwich to get promoted through the play offs then?

That's my thinking. If we don't go up in any season then financially we want the three relegated teams to go straight back up.
