£225,000 at stake tomorrow

The winner of each fifth-round match gets £225,000.

When you're in the PL that's small change.


However, for us, it would be very useful. In addition to the gate receipts in the sixth round.

That should cover a PA systems and some extractor fans.

A place in the FA Cup quarterfinal is at stake tomorrow. The rest is just detail.

Prize money is pretty poor in the cup.....just getting to Wembley for a semi-final would make £1-2million from the gate receipts alone. That's where the decent cash might be made.

Extractor fans? Do they get thrown out or do the throwing out?

No it hasn't mate. Too many arrogant / entitled clarets been kicking about this week. Talking about who we would meet in the quarters. Big bite on the bum.
