The Premier League's Parachute Payments

The parachute payments are about 44 million quid, aren't they, for this time? It should be said that it's not unusual to all transfer fees. Most clubs tend to spread installments over the length of the players' contract. So if we wanted to be active in the market last year, that was the way to do it. Even though people have the perception of the being huge amounts of cash in the Premier League, you still need a board or an ownership structure behind you that can serve up money when you need it.
