It’s not surprising to see the three relegated clubs taking up the bottom three positions in terms of TV earnings, but it should be noted that they will receive “parachute payments” from the Premier League, receiving £41m next season, £34m the year after, and £34m during their third campaign if they are not promoted from the Championship during that time.
Southampton actually finished 15th in the Premier League table but broadcasters were obviously not that keen to televise their games.
20) Norwich – £100.3m
19) Watford – £104.6m
18) Burnley – £106.1m
17) Southampton – £113.3m
