How much do you reckon we'll have earned from this run? We'll have had 5 games on Live TV after the replay. According to this, rather useful (For once) web page rom the FA - http://www.thefa.com/TheFACup/FACompetitions/TheFACup/FACupPages/FACupPrizeFund20082009.aspx
We've earned £108,000 from the 2nd round £144,000 from the 3rd round and £216,000 from the 4th round in TV money alone. £90,000 so far for getting to the 4th round. We get 45% of any gate recipt so a wild guess from OT would be £1,000,000 (76,000 times £30 as a conservative estimate) On the same reckoning about £500,000 from Saturday and the same from the replay perhaps. So we're easily looking at £2.5 Million. Now I'm no cynical grumpy old git ... Oh, on second thoughts) But even after paying Papa Smurfs legal fee's from his lost libel case, surely that leaves us plenty of change to buy a couple of decent players! Or did Max Gradel cost £1,200,000!?!?!?!?!! In which case I reckon we'll be somewhere around > Games is now on wed NOT the tue.. so it can be shown on TV > _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
