When I first saw the title of your post Chris, I was thinking, wow, you're getting ahead of yourself - you've only just got to the final of the Icenian prediction tournament and you're looking for a financial reward already?

I was thinking the same thing, i wonder if the teams that go up via play offs get more? i THINK they do, but obviously who'd seriously slip up 1st place on purpose for a few extra quid in the lottery of the play offs

That's why i asked Lukeo, Who knows but behind the scenes the playoffs maybe the preferred option for financial reasons, But that comes with risks obviously!

Thing with automatic is you are guaranteed a minimum of 900k increase in revenue plus I think if you get relegated straight back you get a cushion of 250k first year? The increase in away fans alone must be worth a lot of money to a Club like Town who are Geographically out on a limb.Town and Bristol Rovers need League football and for that reason I hope they are the 2 who make it this time around but I just don't have faith in us winning the Play Offs because Hursts record in games that really matter is poor at best.C`mon Paul prove the doubters wrong and hundreds like me will be buying Season tickets.UTM

It depends how many people go to Wembley. Barnet have only 2 stops on the tube so they'd take a few. Can't see Eastleigh or FGR taking many. Bristol Rovers v Grimsby would be very well attended I imagine.

The gate receipts for the playoff final get shred with other clubs in the league don't they?

My understanding is 40% go to each club, with the remaining 20% going into paying for hire of Wembley and back into the football family (whatever that may be). Gate receipts, based on a crowd of 60000, averaging £20 a ticket (okay, pretty much plucked that out of the air!) would be £1.2m alone so £480000k into the coffers.
