Can anyone explain how these work & how they would pertain to us ?
I understood Football League clubs get them but can find no reference to National League clubs apart from the two relegated from the Football league.

Can anyone explain how these work & how they would pertain to us ? I understood Football League clubs get them but can find no reference to National League clubs apart from the two relegated from the Football league. Yep, this goes back to when modern football was invented (saying this firmly tongue in cheek before you say anything) by the introduction of the Premier League in 1992. These solidarity payments relates to the Premier League broadcasting rights. The solidarity payments were introduced in the 2006-2007 season at the same time when parachute payments were introduced to pay the TV basic rights income for those Premier League teams being relegated down to the Championship for the first two seasons (now three seasons) when they are relegated out of the Premier League to cover their high cost base. As there would have been an imbalance to the clubs receiving the parachute payments, the solidarity payment system was introduced to mitigate the impact the parachute payments might have which would make the competitive balance of the EFL possibly unstable by paying each club that is not receiving parachute payments a solidarity payment. The EFL have similiarly adopted a parachute payment system that filters down through to EFL League 2 and those being relegated into the National League. Solidarity payments each season are based on the percentage of the third year parachute payment a club relegated from the Premier League would receive of the equally shared element of Premier League broadcasting rights. EFL Championship sides get 30%; EFL League One 4.5%; EFL League Two 3%; National League 0.375% and National League Regional 0.088% How this affects us is that Notts County & Yeovil Town were relegated last season from EFL League Two so they get an EFL parachute payment equal to the EFL League Two but no solidarity payment; Chesterfield and Barnet relegated the prior year get an EFL parachute payment equal to 50% of an EFL League Two club but no solidarity payment and the other 20 clubs each receive the National League Solidarity payment. As a team that can be relegated from the EFL League Two can be relegated the following season into National League Divisional Leagues (York City as example) this is the reason why the Solidarity payments go down to National League North/South but not down as far as the Southern/Isthmian/Northern Premier Divisions

I believe National League clubs get £58k each. North and south get £13k each
