I just read on the BBC footie site that we had to chip in £10k for the VAR operation! I know it worked in our favour on Wednesday but paying to have the game killed every week???!!!

£10,000 that ensured a legitimate penalty missed by the referee was given & an offside goal scored by Southampton that was missed by the linesman was disallowed.

An absolute bargain.

I appreciate the delay with the penalty decision was frustrating, but to be fair they had to check the handball and also a possible Town handball and offside in the build up.

Those VAR decisions contributed to a windfall of over half a million. £225k for winning the game, £125k for TV for the Brighton game, and probably around £170k in gate receipts fro the Brighton game.

I remember JS at the fans forum saying that this cup run will just mean they have to dig slightly less into their pockets in terms of this years investments. Was it the cup run that really propelled Lincoln’s fortunes? Do we know if any will be used for next seasons playing budget?

But that was before the Southampton game so he would not have been expecting the additional half a million plus, that the victory will generate.

I suppose to put the above figures into context you'd look back over probably the previous 15 years to match it even with numerous play off finals? It's a  game changer for GTFC and sets us up for a decent bit of squad building in the Summer and should see us push on in the league. The buzz around the Town is now up there with Ivano era and its not over yet.UTM


If we wanted Ivano now he maybe wouldn't need to pay 50% of his own transfer fee (though it was probably paid to himself or his own Agency, and didn't he get some of it back after the "buffet" incident?  )

my guesstimate, with a 30,000 Brighton crowd taken into consideration ,is that we've made £1.5 million from this years FA Cup  plus another £100k+ from the league & Mickey Mouse cups

think that equates to a third of our normal turnover
