I read this last night, I agree it's an awful rule. Liverpool have barely been in the CL recently yet they're entitled to more money because they won 5 CL's ages ago? Stupid.
I think the money in EPL has really left eufa grasping at straws. But this idea is ridiculous.
Latest in a long list of ridiculous rules and revamps aimed at keeping all the money in the hands of the top 6-8 clubs.
The sensible approach should be either to award prize money based on (club) alphabetical order, or failing that on the number of Emirate Cup appearances.

Liverpool would have to actually qualify first though

I hate to be pedantic but our last one was just 3 years before your last one and our first was 9 years after your first....
we however won 3 in the middle to your 1!
Actually I really enjoyed being pedantic
Is it the 1st April? They might as well just give all the money to the History Boys and close the competition to anyone who wasn't in it 20 years ago. In a long history of corruption and ridiculous decisions this is pure farce. If they do this then other clubs should boycott the CL.
I can't see this getting through.
David Gill is part of this stupidity.
Conflict of interest anyone.
A fair system to mediate against rich owners and upstart clubs.

UEFA should've just let the big clubs go off and make their super league

Just rewarding the proper clubs who made the competition what it is today and rightly so I may add!

I disagree. It's fair reward for decades worth of contribution.
Fair enough really. Clubs that take the competition seriously, and go on to win it, should be rewarded.
The Italian clubs and the people they bribe will be the big winners here.
