Right now yes, its possible. But in the near future the teams from smaller countrys never get a chance against the big teams from big countrys..
Like this you will loose a lot managers from smaller countrys, is that the opinion or the target of ppm? Dont think so..

Same chances for every team in every country, please..

hahahaa, you are joking! please just don't take such an example, you also know that this team is a really special case!! and another thing: the result of getting less sponsor money is not coming in one or 2 seasons. this is a long time effect!

talking about 'small countries' you mean Switzerland?

No, I'm not looking for me or my country only! I fight for FAIR and EQUAL conditions for EVERY team in ppm.

Absolutely agree!

Last year Barcelona won it. They are the 5th ranked most wealthy football club in the world.

The year before Inter Milan won it, they're ranked #6

In fact, of the last 10 Champions League winners, 9 of them were ranked 9th of better in the list of the worlds most wealthy football clubs.

So do not sit there and tell us that sponsorship money plays no role! How about you come and play in the Australian or International leagues for a few seasons and see how YOU like it? Because until you or anybody else in a high paying league do, you have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what it's like!

FYI, the last 10 UEFA winners:

2011? Barcelona (5th)
2010? Inter Milan (6th)
2009? Barcelona (5th)
2008? Manchester United (1st)
2007? Inter Milan (6th)
2006? Barcelona (5th)
2005? Liverpool (9th)
2004? Porto (???)
2003? Inter Milan (6th)
2002? Real Madrid (2nd)
2001? Bayern Munich (4th)

Will this change widen the discrepancy between the rich and the poor in these smaller nations?

I am fairly sure he means this: hockey.powerplaymanager.c...

not really happy here to see your 2003 + 2007 winners...

What has the UEFA CL got to do with this? I was not referring to that. Also don't put words in my mouth. I never said sponsorship money plays no role. All I said was that it's not impossible to be successful even if you are from a smaller country.

try telling it to the those who play in the big countries. They think quite the opposite to people from the small countries. They think that it's a cakewalk playing in a country like Lithuania or Norway compared to their country and there is some truth to that. The system of sponsorship money is there to compensate for this fact. It is not there to make things unfair, but on the contrary to make things more fair. You cannot compare winning in a country with 5,000 teams to winning in a country with 150 teams, yet the team from the country with 150 teams still gets money comparable to the team from the country with 5,000 teams. The difference in money is not all that huge.

After reading all those posts I can just say that there will be more and more complaining. As I said few seasons back, differences are TOO big against good and average teams. someone who starts to play today, has no chance to grow ( if we take for example czezh and slovak 4 ligues - or some other stronger ). Average czech 4 league team is stronger than slovenian 2nd or 1st league But when i compared players, it's almost the same Now imagine to start there
Even for those who are still strugling for long, every season is harder and harder, while bigger are getting richer and richer
But that's the way it's and i don't think something will ever change. We can prepare for same situation with any sport made here.
My opinion is to improve hockey and soccer before making handball failure.
There are so many things to improve and i think users would be gratefull for that.
Adding just another sport with same system is on long shot - FAILURE imo...

"It is not there to make things unfair"

well, that's what it does to the big teams in small countries.
how should a big team from a small country be strong enough for champions league without the same level of sponsors as the big ones? small countries get less sponsors anyway! why should it be even worse? i bet, the highest sponsor in switzerland (still 4 league-levels) is not close that high as the highest slovakian sponsor.
