They should put in a floor (even for both) and then escalations based on what you bring in (all revenue - even WC tourney revenue). If the women make more under that scheme, then they’re right. If they make the same then US soccer is right. If they make less vs the men, then they were very wrong.

They should, however, fly in the same planes, and they should see per game advertisement based on average gate over the last 4 years (rolling average - 4 years because that’s how frequent the tournies are).

The other issue that I’ve heard is different quality stadiums/playing surfaces. I have no idea how to quantify that metric, but it should be based on average per game attendance over a 4 year span (more fans would justify/necessitate a better, bigger stadium).

Then practice facilities should be the same, but I’m not sure that they’re not.

I haven’t seen their finances, and I doubt anyone here has in detail, but my guys’d is that the men make more money after WC tourney revenues, and my guess is that the women and men are pretty close in other revenues over the last 4 years.

Is the revenue game enough to justify tangibly higher wages? I have no idea.
