Is the amount of money received from sponsors the same for every team in a division, regardless of end of season position ie. does the team that finishes second get the same amount of money as a team that narrowly avoids relegation?

I am assuming that sponsorship money increases as one progress up the divisions - does anyone know what the applicable rates are for each divisional tier?

Thanks.

Higher divisions get slightly higher sponsor payouts I believe.

Though one thing that does pay more based on league position is the club shop. Though it's also effected by division and whether you won or lost your last league game.

The amount of sponsorship money you get through a season is based on three things.
1) The Division you are in. Higher divisions get more money.
2) The option you choose. In each division, you are offered three choices. The higher the weekly standard payout, the lower the payout for wins.
3) The number of wins your team has. As mentioned, each payout type is partially based on the number of games (league/cup) you win. So the more games you win, the more sponsorship money you get.


So, in answer to your question, no, the team that just misses relegation does not get the same amount of sponsor money as a team that finishes second, because the team finishing second will have more wins, thus will have gotten more sponsorship money.
