Not sure, but it certainly used to be a third each. Both clubs and the FA
Wouldn’t make sense then for lower league clubs to be buzzing about getting a home tie against one of the big boys?
Edit; you’re correct -
How are gate receipts split in the FA Cup? Ticket money can be one of the most lucrative elements of the FA Cup for lower division clubs. This is because the competition rules stipulate that both teams receive an equal 45 per cent share of gate receipts from their tie, regardless of where it is played.
Would make sense for lower league clubs to play away then at a bigger ground?
Think someone did just that v Newcastle a few years ago. Stevenage maybe?
