Relegation, every Premier League team dreads relegation. Not just for the loss of exposure or loss of pride, but for the loss of revenue.

The loss of funds relegation brings can be catastrophic for some clubs. So how much does relegation from the Premier League cost?

    This is why I can understand why some clubs like Norwich would do the yo-yo club thing, like Bournemouth more or less this season, just don't spend too much as you get up, pocket a lot of the 100 million, and even keeping 50 million of that instead of going for players means they can be a financially healthy Championship club who can use that money to flesh out good facilities and training grounds etc and keep out of debt. I would say Bradford was the worst example of throwing too much money and debt at trying to stay in the EPL

    Bournemouth seem to have done very well through staying up without too much outlay while Nottingham Forest would have been in trouble had they not survived given how much they spent

    Religation from the Premier League but no mention of my beloved West Brom 😂

    So relegation effects owners who pass on bad fortunes to their staff. And the players just shuffle. How does this benefit the game?

    Here in the USA, they will never move to relegation models, because they make too much at the top. In the NBA its quite possible and the talent and interest below the top league is quite real…I would love to see it, mostly because as a Giant fan I would love to see the Cowboys relegated, but it would be us first…..spoiled American

    Staying in the Premier league is both "more financially rewarding" and "lucrative". How are those different? Whereas "the prospect of relegation has become more imperious". Do you know what the words you are using mean? "Imperious" means "arrogantly dominating over others / dictatorial / overbearing". How can "the prospect of relegation" be ANY of those things? Stop trying to be clever and putting together word salads. Just say what you mean and use words you understand.

    the NBA is thinking about relegation for "underperforming" team, so I'm here to figure out if it's good, bad, or even worth a conversation.

    I mean Leicester City are only the second ever Premier League Champions to have gotten relegated from the division. The only other team to have won the Premier league title and then been relegated are Blackburn Rovers when they got relegated in the 98-99 season.

    Karma for sacking Ranieri

    So basically AFC Richmond keeping all its players (and even expanding its staff) in Ted Lasso was wildly unrealistic. Such a shame that a fictional TV show is fictional.

    Like every European country has relegation and it’s bad in all of the countries. English bias is so strong

    players taking 95% revenue money hungry animals cap the wages

    Well now the prospect of promotion to premier leaguse soubds scary too. I heard luton town have to invest in better stadium to get it up to premier league standard, now imagine how hard it'll hit them if they don't stay

    Haha, Italian clubs earnig as much as championship clubs and still manage to lead European competitions. Football intelligence and culture > money.

    Never been a fan of our seen the sense of these parachute payments…

    Why is Sean Dyche a 'relegation specialist'? He's not – he's a manager who kept Burnley in the league for years and left before they went down. He didn't join Everton as a 'relegation specialist' because he isn't one; he joined as the most pragmatic option available at the time based on experience in the division.

    Just seems lazy to me. "Oh he's a northern English manager with an accent, he's the same as Allardyce." Nonsense.

    Kinda glad Leeds got relegated. Bielsa worked hard to get them back there an they spit him out because he was having a hard season which was plagued with injuries. Now they went right back where they came lol.

    im a United fan, but ive always loves Leicester, and i almost cried watching them get relegated

  18. Avatar de Nashville

    The relegation system in PL (and maybe in the championship) seems to be outdated. Should change it to be similar to US major leagues.

  19. Avatar de Jack

    Interesting to know you only get 2 years of parachute payments if you come straight back down

    What about the opposite? i.e. go down and come straight back up?

  20. Avatar de H T

    The parachute payment scheme should be ended. It enables the yo-yo clubs to bounce back straightaway and leaves the rest of the Championship clubs stranded without a realistic prospect of entering the Premier League. In effect it creates a two tier system.

    That’s why fans need to understand that a well run club without trophies isn’t something to be scoffed at.

    The amount of Portsmouth fans who have told me they wouldn’t give up their day out at Wembley, despite ending up all the way down in the fourth tier, is just stupid.

    Also, players who ‘fail’ might have still been worth their money. Andy Carroll kept West Ham up twice by performing in crucial games either side of injuries, so he earned his cash.

    This is why a league like MLS won't implement relegation, it risks massive losses in a league where teams cost hundreds of millions of dollars up front and if a team gets relegated it will massively damage a sport that's growing in the us

  24. Avatar de ProcrastinatingPuma

    There is a reason why Pro/Rel Leagues are top heavy, it's simply too risky to invest in a club that could start hemorrhaging money after one bad year.

    As an American who fell in love with the Prem BECAUSE of Leicester's title win, their relegation really hit hard. Up the Palace.

    Tifo so on point that they made 0 dollars from this video which is talking about relagation
