Quoted from RonMariner
So far we have earned £333k in prize money. We get £75k for the Tv coverage of the Southampton game. So that’s £408k guaranteed. Then their are gate receipts from the fist five games. In total them must have been 30,000 tickets sold so I am guessing that’s about £600k of which we get some percentage, maybe 40%? If so then that would be another £240k. So now we are up to £648k. Then there will a share of the Southampton gate, maybe another £160k.

So that’s £880k. If this thing about the last lower league side prize is true then we are making over. Million quid!!!

That’s all guesswork. I am sure the better informed posters will be able to provide a more accurate estimate.

But hey, what a fantastic boost to the finances!


£125,000 for the tv coverage

We would have got something for the overseas coverage tonight too...

Is the League 2 Progress Fund still happening? I can see reference to it from 2019 and 2020 but nothing since.

Looking at the progress Lincoln made after their cup windfall at Arsenal, this could be a huge step in our progress. Being able to invest in the club as a whole, not just the first team is an absolute must for the future of the club and as much as we're indebted to the new owners for their input,this is a huge chunk of money that will keep the club in a healthy place for years!

PS - as my mate messaged me -  20 years of Fenty - 0 football fortune , 20 months of 1878...........[/quote]

Interesting isn’t it? Fenty used to talk a lot about football fortune, basically saying he would release the purse strings when it arrived. But it never did.
1878 talk about hard work, teamwork, sustainability and building a community club, and what do they get? Football fortune.
Sure, there’s a lot of luck involved, but the fundamental difference is that Fenty saw luck as an input - i.e we need the football fortune before we can invest.
I’m pretty sure that 1878 see luck as an outcome of doing the right things, and so far they’re getting it.

with 1878 I think it's also pertinent to consider the Brailsford quote re British cycling - in order to improve things 100% you need to imprive 100 things by 1% , and to an extent that's what they've done - small, incremental improvements. Nothing spectacular , but it all adds up. and this coverage and this money will only acclerate the ability to make these changes at a quicker pace
