Ryan believes the plan to increase the parachute payments to clubs relegated from the Premier League from £32m over two years to £48.4m over four years, which was agreed in principle last May but must be ratified by member clubs today, will lead to a two-tier Championship.
He said: "I don't agree with it but, in reality, money talks so it will be passed. All this will do is distort the Championship in years to come, and that is why this year is a great opportunity for clubs like ourselves.
"Put it this way, I don't think there will be too many Blackpools coming through once this money kicks in.
"If a club is getting £17m in the first year and £48m in total, the rest are going to struggle to compete. I see this as a real shame as the Championship is one of the most competitive leagues around.
"Money is always welcome, of course, but we all know in reality that it goes straight to the players. So, the clubs will not benefit."
The proposed new deal will see the Premier League use its new £3.1bn television contract for the next three seasons to pay increased parachute payments to relegated clubs and an additional £58.5m to the other Football League clubs.
Providing it is rubber-stamped today, any relegated club will be paid £17.5m in the first year with a further £14.5m being due 12 months later. The remaining £16.4m will then be paid over the final two years - unless the club is promoted back to the top flight in the mean-time, as then all payments will stop
