baker.simon Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 A couple of questions about how cup attendance incomes are distributed in game. Imagine your playing as a smaller club and you draw one of the current big 4. Would it be better to draw them at home or away? Im guessing at home due to the gate reciepts, however what if you are drawn away? What happens to income from that and can i expect a windfall from their gate reciepts or will i not get much?

stevvy Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 If your stadium holds 4k and the oppositions stadium holds 40k, you'd want to be away-you'd get far far more money if you were away in that situation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What could i expect, not in value as such but is it like half of the gate reciepts or similar? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Cup takings are split 50/50 whereas league takings are stronly in favour of the home team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent, i look forward to a relative windfall then. I just hope they can sell out lol! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 When I played as Nantwich we got an away draw against Arsenal in the FA Cup we lost 4-1 but the match made us just under £1 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisso Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 If you're certain you won't get through and don't mind going out in the round, then an away draw to a big gun in the Premiership is ideal. For someone like Arsenal, United, Sunderland, Newcastle with high attendances you could potentially receive as an example: ((£35 x 50,000 attendance) / 2) so a nice £875k for your troubles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
