Alas, if I'm reading this correctly, L.O.N. will miss out on a year's parachute money due to a (long overdue, imho) restructuring of the payments system.
Teams who disappear back into oblivion after a single season in the top flight lose a year's payments.
Quite why they choose to reward abject failure with multi-million payouts at all is still a mystery to me - there are clubs further down the pyramid for whom that money could be the difference between sink or swim, but that's another issue altogether.
