HoreTore Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Simple question, how is match day income(tickets) divided in the FA cup? I'm managing Rochdale in League 1, so a succesful FA cup campaign is quite likely to save my finances.. I know that you get a portion of the ticket income when playing away from home, but how much? And how is match day expenses handled? Does the FA take a portion of the income as well? And does this apply to all games, or just when the smaller teams play the big teams? And finally, does this only apply to the FA cup, or is it the same for the league cup, FA trophy and/or johnstones paint trophy? I tried searching the forum for any previous threads, but didn't find any answers. If this is a common question and my google-fu is weak, please feel free to directmy incompetent behind to the appropriate thread. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
