For the Ruth’s😀

Unless you’re small club with day trippers or Leeds who take millions I think people’s outlook especially with the league cup has changed, fa cup on a Saturday different story like

What is a realistic estimate of our 45% of the income i.e. how much dosh is this tie likely to bring into the club?

And will it cover the team's transport to London, accommodation and a week's wages?

Based on 50,000 gate, at 20 quid a head, thats 450,000 to us. Transport and accommodation 5,000 grand? Wages dont come into it, as salaried for the year. Plenty profit there!

I think I will watch it on my dodgy stick in Zante 😎

You need to deduct the costs incurred by Arsenal from hosting the game. Police, Stewards, ticket staff, utilities, etc.

We’d collect 45% of the profits, after the match costs.

😮 where the fuck are they stopping?

[Rival Son]

20 rooms at £250 per night in London. It’s expensive, that there London!

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Would they stay in London, or a little way out, and a coach ride in?

School night makes it awkward. Think for those that have never done the Emirates it's a nice one to tick off. Personally done it a few times so not too arsed. See what the ticket price is. Don't like club transport but might be the best option for a midweek London trip.

Amazing how many people wank him off for posting links to the Bolton website

Approx 30 staff, players, management,  coaches, etc, 150 a night each thats 4500 grand. Soon adds up.

It’ll be £5k for travel alone. There and back in a private first class train carriage on a weekday, with logistics person on hand to look after them. Nearer to 40 people in total. 
 

Accommodation will be £10k plus with food, afternoon meeting room, transport to / from stadium etc included.

Can they not car share and offer any spare seats to supporters ?

Not read 4 pages, but I'm out.

More chance of me being Oasis' drummer on the upcoming Money for Old Rope Tour.

Do they always stay overnight the night before an away game?  Seems an unnecessary expense/faff especially in London.  I get it for a lunchtime game in Crawley but different for a night match surely.

50k gate? Really? I suppose it's theoretically possible for a midweek game in the League Cup third round - they certainly have the room.

That would be fantastic. So where does the money for salaries and our other bills come from then? Or are we just planning to continue trading at a loss forever?

He's clearly insane (I hope that doesn't upset him, he banned me from his FB site for calling him bi-polar)

I suppose it would have been exactly the same cost if we'd drawn Wimbledon away, so its still a huge financial bonus to be playing at Arsenal instead of in front of 5k.
