As best as I can work this out for beating Chelsea we got: £300,000 prize money £265,000 TV fee £220,000 45% gate Plus merchandise/ programme sales etc =about £900,000 Plus semi-final revenue to come
for beating chelsea we got an extra 300k..the rest we would have had we lost Plus we will get 16.5% of gate receipts from both semi's i.e say 80,000 x 2 x 40 x 0.165= 1m +tv money 265k??, + merchandise, + profit on coaches. Could be more than 1.5m even if we lose
The TV money is compensation for lost revenue etc I think any monies for TV rights in the semi finals go directly to the FA
