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.


I think you're pushing it with 60,000!

You say a gate of 60k but the record Conference attendance is 49k.

IF it is us against Rovers, I would see 40,000 for them and 20,000 for us.  Rovers have had 40,000 fans before at Wembley.  They might also think that they will win the Promotion Final.

I think that we would take a maximum of 20,000 fans.  More important game than the last visits,  and better weather in mid-May.  The downside is that fairweather fans can watch the game on TV.

I think that BP Vicar's £480K is a good total to aim for our coffers for for planning purposes. I remember that some tickets were £50 for our first visit to the new Wembley.  £20 is probably a bit on the low side for an average ticket price.  Helpful if some rich Rovers fans but expensive tickets.

I would still rather have a much lower attendance and income against another team, as long as we win!

Barnet only had 2,200 on Sat for a key game so how many would they take?  Despite being very close to Wembley.

I think Bristol Rovers would take 40k, we would take 20k maybe? I don't think that's unrealistic.
