- Unhappiness that Championship excluded from rescue package
- Premier League offers hardship funding to second-tier clubs
English Football League clubs have rejected a £50m rescue package for League One and League Two after deeming the bailout inadequate and insist Championship clubs should be part of any deal.
The Premier League has in turn extended an offer of hardship funding to second-tier teams but, in a move that shows the depths to which relations with the EFL have fallen following the revelations of Project Big Picture, it is to make the offer to clubs directly, cutting out the EFL.
