The clubs have expressed their concerns that teams that are relegated from the Premier League will have too great a financial advantage.
The concerns were expressed at a meeting of the 24 second-tier clubs on Wednesday after they were presented with the Premier League's proposals for parachute payments to be 23million for the first year after relegation.
Clubs in the Championship not receiving parachute payments would get just 2.3million.
The outcome of Wednesday's meeting was inconclusive, with the Football League board asked to come up with a range of options and to continue discussions with the Premier League, club sources confirmed.
The increase in parachute payments from 16million is because of the rise in the Premier League's TV rights from 2013-16 - and it effectively decides on the level it pays.
The Football League clubs were informed of the proposed rises in a letter from chairman Greg Clarke.
The proposals is for relegated clubs to receive 23million in the first year, 18million in the second and 9million in years three and four. It would mean a possible total of 59million over four years compared to the maximum now of 48million.
The new offer of solidarity payments for League One clubs are for 360,000 and 240,000 a 6.6% and 5.4% rise respectively.
