So lets assume there is a 50/50 split between adults and kids that means more or less on a 40000 attendance ( I think it's more likely to be more over 20s than under to be honest )

20,000 @ £10 =  £200,000
20,000 @ £ 5  =  £100,000

If we get a 45% share of the gate then comes to £ 135000

Given Fenty said last night we would be nowhere near getting a six figure pay out, just how much are expenses for staging this fixture?

The presenter on RH ( Chris Cooper I think it was ) also mentioned the spin off with merchandise that GTFC could capitalise on ( assuming of course that folk don't already have shirts etc)

It could just be me but I would think as a one-off footballing fortune windfall we should still do pretty well financially out of the tie no matter what spin our director(s) may put on it

Quoted from golfer


These are for the seats not reserved for season ticket holders


2 recent 3rd Round League Cup ties, albeit against Bolton and Forest both attracted gates of over 40,000. They have given us the maximum away allocation, so it seems that their fans do turn out for these games.

There's going to be hundreds of stewards and police there, plus numerous other staff who need paying. It doesn' take many peoples wages to get down to a five-figure amount.

I think the biggest reason we won't get much money out of it is the tickets are so cheap. Hopefully we'll make more in Round 4

28k turned up for the fa cup game - their average that season was 25k. We took A few thousand


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

Fenty said on the radio yesterday that we would get considerably less then 6 figures from the game..  For some reason there is also no prize money till the semi-finals..


As has to go through Fenty's Back Pocket Fund first?

I would not know about that, but he always gives the impression that any money that doesn't come from him isn't as important.

Surely the correct thing to say is "what a fantastic fillip this extra revenue will be for the club - it will enable us to do xyz"

From what I believe, any money is due to go on heightening the floodlights as advised by the council

Quite right too, I still have visual impairment from my eye line being beneath the Upper roof the other night. I mean, really.... How rude.
