QPR won't go under, their owners are wealthy enough to support the debt they have.  Bolton did get parachute payments from the Premier league but I believe that has now ended, hence their financial woes coming to the fore.

The problem is the disparity between the divisions, the gap in revenue between the Prem and Championship is enormous, but its a big drop from the Champ to League 1 as well.  Clubs can usually cut their cloth accordingly between League 1 and the Championship but the parachute payments that relegated prem teams get really gives them a huge advantage over the other teams in the division and that is what potentially will drive some championship teams to the brink of financial disaster.  This is because without competing with the teams that come down from the prem in terms of wages and transfer fees, then you will struggle to compete on the field when you play them.

That's why both Hull and Burnley are doing so well this season as they will be hoping to bounce back into the Prem.
