Ok, where does the FA get the money from?

You know this thing called the World Cup, or tv money, or league tv money. The list goes on and on/

Barcelona and Arsenal and PSG and Juventus make enough money off professional soccer to: Pay their professional coaches Pay their professional players Pay their youth coaches Pay the transfer fees as required, which in turn allows smaller clubs they feed upon to pay their youth coaches. Does FC Dallas make enough to do all that? Does Seattle Sounders? The answer is no.

Therefore, the money must come from somewhere. Until it comes in from the top, it must come in from the bottom.
