Cup Games - Give Away Teams 10%

Not sure if its been suggested before, but would it be a nice idea for 10-30% of cup game proceeds be given to the away team?

Would allow more money to filter down to lower leagues when they are drawn against a lucrative cup tie.

There's no way to cheat the system either other than bigger teams being stubborn and putting ticket prices so they get the lowest possible return, but why would they do that?!

Why limit it to cup games?

They won't implement this but it makes sense the gate receipts get shared.

It should just be limited to cup games. Good idea overall, I agree

I've been hoping for this for ages. Would be similar to real life (i.e. FA Cup) and would really benefit those smaller team who get knocked out every time in the first round.
