and thats not counting the highlight either... which is 18k per round... never mind ticket and everything else
we have not had high light till yesterday has to be main match...but we can add a substantial mount of gate money...we have to be over 250k
RE: we have not had high light till yesterday £265,000 in Q/F just for it being on tv as well!! 4 games have been shoqn on tv every round, bbc have shown 3 with sky showing 1 as well!! Plus ticket sales as well, if Man Utd away it could be a total of £500,000 - £750,000!
I am guessing we almost doubled that on gate receipts alone yesterday 42 000 x £24 = £576 000 estimate 25% concessions so take off £60 000 = £516 20% for expenses leaves approx £400 000 to divide by 2 for the two clubs
what about sheff utd? they'll end up wi a lot more just for the 2 games shown live with boro even if/when they lose! we gotta make a live un the next round choose what, satdy evening in manchester??
RE: what about sheff utd? 3 live games for Sheff Utd - as they were on against Man City and their replay will be on as well
I read in one of the papers after Liverpool beat Havant, that Havant picked up somewhere in the region of £500,000 in gate receipts for the game. Also can remember Wilson saying that the cup game at Old Trafford was worth about £400,000 to Barnsley.
You been using Gordon Brown's calculator? 42000 at £24 is a million quid.</p> Our share (40%) - £400k. Plus the prize money and the highlights - well over half a million.</p> Guaranteed live TV next round (only 4 games) - 260k, plus gate money etc.</p> We're gonna get well over a million from this Cup run.</p>
ooops looks like it - Now that Northern Rock deal looks excellent value to us taxpayers using my calculator
