CarMad Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Might be wrong but I think gate receipts are split 75% home, 25% away for the FA Cup. Also believe the away team is able to request up to a 25% allocation if segregation logistics allow. Every lower league club wants to draw a big premiership club and pay away at their place all day and all night. As NNMM suggest it can provide a great game that they might win and and if they don't they get lots of pennies. As a support of a lower league clue I love to see a team take a Championship or Prem side right to the whistle or to a replay or better still win it, why not who doesn't like the underdog. As for how much? Well they get half or as good as. The home side take all of the tickets, minus the costs of police and a few other things and then depending on the round you are in you then get a % of whats left so for the 4th round that means each side gets 45% of whats left and the FA takes the rest. Oh and if it gets on TV then they share the TV money equally as well. So a lower league team might see at the top end circa £500k if they get a big prem club and get on the TV, which for a conference club would sort them out for a good while thank you very much.

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 A little perspective on the impact of playing at Yeovil might help... Last year, Yeovil reported a loss of £454,000. For the game against Manchester United, they received the sum of £144,000 from BT Sport for the televising of the game. Analysts early estimates (post match) on the sponsorships deals that were done, the additional ground advertising, gate receipts and foreign media deals suggest that they have received an additional £338,000 on top of the BT money. So, total monies earned - £482,000. Annual loss, gone in 90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Seen it before. I know who I'd believe and it isn't GMP. Look at Old Trafford on any match day. Spot spare seats. This isn't the Emirates.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Meow.. Arsenals average 99.4%, Man Utd 99.5% Given that Emerates is the dearest ticket in world football that means per head Arsenal win the title most gate profit per supporter. Not a title I'm happy with given the erratic playing standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Yes, but you play in a stadium with a 60,000 capacity. Old Trafford is 75,500 (75,731 to be precise). It is easy to fill small grounds like The Emirates. Let's not forget that Trafford Borough Council have received and passed plans from Manchester United to expand the stadium to a capacity of 96,000...

Booster Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Good for us! Undefeated in four games now. Five points off twelfth sounds far better than bottom! Went corporate yesterday and treated all the staff and partners as a colleague who has been a season ticket holder since the 60s was retiring. Great afternoon but much prefer sitting with the rabble for the atmosphere!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon magnifique Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Do you still charge a tenner for a season ticket? You can't fit 14000 in Boundary Park. Not that it matters. We'd be happy with half that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Also, for a league 1 club to get 14k+ fans for home games, fantastic. Whereas clubs like Oldham would sell their granny for that! No it isn't. It is an appalling return for the 6th largest and most populated City in the UK! Who are you trying to kid! I don't care what league you are in, the support of Bradford has always been shocking when you consider the sheer scale of population. There are 40,000 more people in Bradford than in bloody Manchester! 483,000 people. Sorry, where football attendances are concerned, your club/City is a terrible inditement on the lack of interest in it. Always has been and always will be - poor relatives who nobody gives a toss about. If we're speaking the truth here, Bradford City is a complete non-entity in football attendances and should be getting 3 times the crowd. You never filled the stadium when you were in the Premier League either, so don't be coming back with that one. Small club fans love to hide behind the "we've done brilliantly considering...." etc. Where Bradford are concerned, as a club in a massive City, they've got to be considered an epic failure of a club. There. Put that in yer' pipe and smoke it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
