Boydy9 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi guys, just won the Scottish cup and got prize money of 60k, surely this can't be correct ? I'm sure it was a million in previous versions of the game. Anyone confirm this ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celtic_1967 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 That doesn't sound right. Screenshot? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boydy9 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Not got one handy but its the 2nd time I have got the same amount for winning it. Thought maybe I had made a mistake editing with the first one but this time I am using 10.2 with no edits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Ter Posted January 18, 2010 SI Staff Share Posted January 18, 2010 The Scottish Cup has had sponsorship problems over the last few years so I doubt the prize money is very high. Certainly nowhere near £1M. Teams will probably get more from TV money that they do for winning the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boydy9 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Thanks for the reply Ter but Willie Haughey sponsored the competition for 1 million a year so should be far more than 60k for winning it surely ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the prize money in the Scottish Cup is round by round based so the winners will get more than £60k as they will get money from appearing in the semi-finals, quarter-finals, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryknow Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Isnt there a bug regarding scottish cup prize money, where the runner up ends up getting more than the winner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflection22 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 There's a bug with this in 10.1, where the runner-up got £500k and the winner only got £60k, so it was more beneficial financially to lose the final lol. I'm pretty sure I read it was fixed in 10.2 though. Edit: Yea, this is in the 10.2 patch fix list: Scotland -------- - Both Scottish Cup semi finals are now played at Hampden. - Correct prize money figures for semi final and final. So it should be fixed if you start a new game on 10.2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflection22 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Do you actually get TV money from domestic cups in any country in FM though? Whenever I've had a cup game selected for T.V, I've never got a message about television money or noticed any extra come in when looking at my finances screen. The Scottish Cup has had sponsorship problems over the last few years so I doubt the prize money is very high. Certainly nowhere near £1M.

I have 10.2, but when looking at the rules for the Scottish Cup it says Prize Money: £8,000 - Loser gets £8,000 Scottish league cup loser prize money £50,000 ....That can't be right?

reflection22 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Did you start the save before or after updating to 10.2?

Ryknow Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I started the save with 10.1, then updated around half a season in. I just saw the "So it should be fixed if you start a new game on 10.2." Devo, this is my long term save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
