UEFA Champions League, where does all the money go


A total of €754.1m was distributed to clubs participating in the UEFA Champions League last season, with the two finalists, FC Barcelona and Manchester United FC, receiving the largest amounts.

A further €13.3m was distributed as solidarity payments to those clubs who were eliminated in the three qualifying rounds, while each of the 20 teams involved in the play-off matches received a fixed amount of €2.1m, irrespective of the result of their ties.

Additional solidarity payments for national associations and leagues to allocate to their clubs who did not participate in the UEFA Champions League totalled €69.9m, and must be used for youth development programmes.

UEFA has announced the sums that the participating teams received for their efforts in the 2010/11 campaign after money generated by the centralised marketing of European football's blue-riband club competition was redistributed among the 32 sides.

Manchester United got €53.197m in payments from UEFA. This comprised more than €27m for their performances from the UEFA Champions League group stage onwards, and another €25.9m from the television market pool.

Barcelona's triumphant run to the title at Wembley in May earned them a total of €51.025m. The Spanish club's performance-related payments amounted to €30.7m and they also collected €20.3m from the TV market pool.

Barça netted €9m for winning the trophy thanks to their 3-1 success over United, who picked up €5.6m as runners-up. The other major earners from the 2010/11 UEFA Champions League were Chelsea FC (€44,523,000), FC Schalke 04 (€39,750,000), Real Madrid CF (€39,288,000), FC Internazionale Milano (€37,982,000), FC Bayern München (€32,562,000) and Tottenham Hotspur FC (€31,133,000).

The €754.1m prize money allotted to the 32 teams who figured from the group stage onwards consisted of €413m in fixed amounts plus €341,100,000 from the market pool.

All the clubs were entitled to a minimum €7.2m in accordance with the distribution system, which awarded a basic participation bonus of €3.9m, plus €3.3m from the six €550,000 match bonuses given per group game.

Additionally, performance bonuses were paid in the group stage: sides received €800,000 for every win and €400,000 for every draw. The 16 clubs that reached the round of 16 were each assigned an additional €3m, the eight quarter-finalists an extra €3.3m, and the four semi-finalists – including Real Madrid and Schalke – a bonus of €4.2m.

Monies from the market pool were distributed according to the proportional value of the national TV market each individual team represented, among other factors, so the amounts given varied from country (or national association) to country.

A Story of Puang Oca & Edi Sabara Mangga Barani

Mantan Wakapolri M. Jusuf Mangga Barani mengaku serius menekuni bisnis kuliner, setelah pensiun dari institusi kepolisian pada awal 2011 silam. Keseriusan itu ditunjukan dengan membuka rumah makan seafood Puang Oca pertama di Jakarta yang terletak di Jalan Gelora Senayan, Jakarta. "Saya ini kan hobi masak sebelum masuk kepolisian. Jadi ini menyalurkan hobi, sekaligus untuk silaturahmi dengan banyak orang. Kebetulan ini ada tempat strategis," katanya 7 Desember 2011. Rumah makan Puang Oca Jakarta ini merupakan cabang dari restoran serupa yang sudah dibuka di Surabaya. Manggabarani mengatakan pada prinsinya, sebagai orang Makassar, darah sebagai saudagar Bugis sangat kental, sehingga dia lebih memilih aktif di bisnis kuliner setelah purna tugas di kepolisian. Rumah makan Puang Oca ini menawarkan menu makanan laut khas Makassar, namun dengan cita rasa Indonesia. Menurut Manggabarani, kepiting, udang dan jenis ikan lainnya juga didatangkan langsung dari Makassar untuk menjamin ke...

Preman Jakarta, antara Kei, Ambon, Flores, Banten dan Betawi

BERDIRI menelepon di pintu pagar markasnya, rumah tipe 36 di Kaveling DKI Pondok Kelapa, Jakarta Timur, Umar Ohoitenan Kei, 33 tahun, tampak gelisah. Pembicaraan terkesan keras. Menutup telepon, ia lalu menghardik, “Hei! Kenapa anak-anak belum berangkat?” Hampir setengah jam kemudian, pada sekitar pukul 09.00, pertengahan Oktober lalu itu, satu per satu pemuda berbadan gelap datang. Tempat itu mulai meriah. Rumah yang disebut mes tersebut dipimpin Hasan Basri, lelaki berkulit legam berkepala plontos. Usianya 40, beratnya sekitar 90 kilogram. Teh beraroma kayu manis langsung direbus-bukan diseduh-dan kopi rasa jahe segera disajikan. Hasan mengawali hari dengan membaca dokumen perincian utang yang harus mereka tagih hari itu. Entah apa sebabnya, tiba-tiba Hasan membentak pemuda pembawa dokumen. Yang dibentak tak menjawab, malah melengos dan masuk ke ruang dalam.Umar Kei, 33 tahun, nama kondang Umar, tampak terkejut. Tapi hanya sedetik, setelah itu terbahak. Dia tertawa sampai ...

PREMAN JAKARTA: Siapa bernyali kuat?

Saya paling suka cerita dan film tentang thriller, mirip mobster, yakuza, mafia dll. Di Indonesia juga ada yang menarik rasa penasaran seperti laporan Tempo 15 November 2010 yang berjudul GENG REMAN VAN JAKARTA. >(http://majalah.tempointeraktif.com/id/arsip/2010/11/15/INT/mbm.20101115.INT135105.id.html) TANGANNYA menahan tusukan golok di perut. Ibu jarinya nyaris putus. Lima bacokan telah melukai kepalanya. Darah bercucuran di sekujur tubuh. "Saya lari ke atas," kata Logo Vallenberg, pria 38 tahun asal Timor, mengenang pertikaian melawan geng preman atau geng reman lawannya, di sekitar Bumi Serpong Damai, Banten, April lalu. "Anak buah saya berkumpul di lantai tiga." Pagi itu, Logo dan delapan anak buahnya menjaga kantor Koperasi Bosar Jaya, Ruko Golden Boulevard, BSD City, Banten. Mereka disewa pemilik koperasi, Burhanuddin Harahap. Mendapat warisan dari ayahnya, Baharudin Harahap, ia menguasai puluhan koperasi di berbagai kota, seperti Bandung, Semaran...
