Government wants to break up 'big four' footballing monopoly

Champions League cash worth £15 million-£40m to each could be shared out among the 20 clubs in England’s top division with the aim of creating a more level playing field, under the proposed scheme headed by Culture Secretary and life long Everton fan Andy Burnham.
