New WW sub-forum

[rcgills]

We've created a new sub-forum for WW football, especially for anything that doesn't really fit in on the weekly threads. Season previews, ante-post bets and discussion, transfer news, etc. Makes it easier to keep track of, as obviously anything that was posted up until now quickly disappeared down the board with all the new threads that get added every week. Just one thread per country per season.

We've moved over the most recent appropriate threads, plus some older ones we can remember, but if anyone has posted similar threads earlier in the season that should be moved over, just remind us and we'll move them over.

The following is from the CL in the 2003 season and you can get a rough idea of what its like here.

The 32 participants in the 2002/03 UEFA Champions League group and knockout stages have been paid €475m out of the revenue for Europe's most prestigious club competition. fficeffice" />
Forecasts matched
UEFA said the amount paid to the 32 teams on the basis of fixed bonus payments, performance bonuses and market pool shares was in line with forecasts made at the start of the season. Each of the 32 clubs received a set amount of €1.62m for taking part in the competition. They also received €325,000 per match for each fixture played in the first and second group stages, up to a maximum €3.9m for clubs who qualified for both.
Group results
With respect to results in the group matches, clubs were paid €325,000 for a win and €163,000 for a draw - a maximum €1.95m per group stage, giving a maximum total of €3.9m. The quarter-finalists each received €2.6m, and the four semi-finalists €3.25m. Champions League winners AC Milan received €6.5m for winning the competition, while runners-up Juventus FC came away with €3.9m.
TV contracts
Each club was also entitled to a share of the market pool, allocated in proportion to the value of the TV contracts for the countries of the clubs concerned. Furthermore, the amount paid out to the associations with more than one club in the competition depended on the number of matches played in the 2002/03 Champions League, and on the clubs' finishing position in the previous season's domestic championship.
Market pool
Consequently, for the same number of Champions League matches, Juventus received more from the market pool than their conquerors in the final, Milan, because they finished the 2001/02 Italian domestic season as champions, while Milan finished fourth.
Associations benefit
Meanwhile, UEFA's 52 member associations and some of their clubs received more than €25m in solidarity payments from last season's Champions League. Each association received €195,000. Clubs eliminated in any of the three qualifying rounds or the UEFA Cup qualifying round received €52,000 per round played.
Eliminated clubs
In addition, every club eliminated in either of the first two UEFA Cup rounds received €52,000, and domestic champion clubs which did not qualify for the Champions League first group stage each received €98,000.

The UEFA Cup obviously isnt as lucrative but its still a decent earner for teams now with the group phase there. I have no idea about the Copa Libertadores.

Hope this helps
