I've just put a large (0.75 litre) bottle of 'La Chouffe' in the beer fridge: looking forward to opening it in celebration once home again tonight. I just hope the players have the same steely determination I have to see this through.


Cracking beer. I always forget the name but look for the gnome!

Been a favourite of mine for many years: have visited the brewery twice as well.

Quoted from Meza
I don't think I've ever felt so nervous, I think it's because we didn't get a positive result at BP.  I didn't feel like this at Wembley a few weeks ago, nor in 98 when I went to both those Wembley visits.  Maybe it's because if we don't get promoted were not going to have a decent playing budget next season.

Do you think the extra money earnt will help us have a decent budget?

1) how did we receive from Wembley
2) how much would we receive in attendances in the playoffs plus TV money

Lets just hope the boys put it in fingers crossed.


Interesting one that Meza. Not sure about the Wembley stuff - no doubt they're going to want their cut.
In respect to playing budgets I always times home gates - over the whole season - by about £10. So, if you have 3K average gates - about £700,000 income - a very rough guestimate. But then there are all the other payments within the running of a club outside of player's wages and most supporters usually ignore that in the equation - hence the need for JF to have put the money in that he has . Of course there's other fund raising and raised revenues outside of gate receipts.

Put it this way. I was told the other month that a club needs a playing budget of between £1M and £2M just to get out of the Conf. Prem! And then £2M - £3M to get out of Div 2. Don't ask about Div 2 to Div 1 - because I got the shock of my life - but possibly a big factor in why clubs like Stockport have fallen so quickly.

As far as I can tell, a league place would return :-

1). Premiership Solidarity Payment - abt. £250K
2). Television/Sponsorship - £430K
3). Youth Development - £180K

as some of the above cease immediately or halve and then cease after a year on demotion to the Conference.

In the meantime - enjoy the game.

Yeah, let's imagine we are talking to a non existent sky fairy deity,  that will almost definitely mean we'll win. (Unless any newport fans do the same in which case the all powerful being will have to exercise his/her all knowing wisdom and weigh up the validity of both sets of prayers. . . Cos that is the sort of sh1t that God does on a Sunday)
