Referees' boss Howard Webb has told EFL clubs that Premier League match officials are earning an average of £240,000-a-year.
In a revealing presentation, the PGMOL chief disclosed that top-flight refs are costing the business close to a quarter of a million pounds - which is double what those in the Championship are paid.
However, officials have since attempted to clarify, pointing out that the figure of £240,000 is actually the total cost to PGMOL including National Insurance, match fees and performance bonuses and have claimed that a salary of £180,000 is more commonplace.
In the Championship, Webb said that the 18 Select Group Two Referees will get around £120,000, with assistant referees on £110,000.
