Not equal, but less split than that

and that's almost solely down to equal TV distribution. The reason the PL is so lop-sided is mainly because of rich sugar daddies like Abramovich and Sheikh Mansour.

Liverpool and Arsenal, who have sold-out big stadiums, can't even compete with them, and the only reason Man U can is brilliant management, massive global merchandising, a huge stadium and Champs League money.
