How much will the club have made from the Dulwich Hamlet match?

Well, we know of the £36,000 prize money and the £75,000 television money. But after Dulwich's expenses have been deducted we get half of the gate money. It is not until round three that the FA gets any of the gate money.

The gate was 3,336. I am guessing that the average person paid £20. Some will have paid more to be in the stand and there will have been some special expensive packages but there will also have been some juveniles and OAPs. Therefor 3,336 * £20 makes £66,720. Let's make that £64,000 after the Dulwich expenses have been deducted, therefor we get £32,000.

I reckon that our FA Cup revenue from this match is £32,000 (gate share) plus £36,000 (prize fund) plus £75,000 (television), making a total of £143,000.

Prize money for a win in round two is £54,000.

The prize money for the round is credited to the club's account when the whole of the round has been played.

Therefor the club will get the first round prize money on Thursday 21st November, the last of the re-plays being on Wednesday 20th November.

The total prize money for a team is that which has been accumulated over the rounds. So in the second round the prize for winning is to increase that £36,000 to £54,000. It is not £36,000 plus £54,000 making £90,000. Second round winners will get £18,000 making the accumulated winnings into £54,000. The £18,000 will be paid after the round has been completed.

A team from below tier 4 that gets to the first round proper will have the chance to increase its accumulated £18,750 to £36,000 by winning in the first round.

Chance to do something or bust,the wind will ease by kick off so will not be as bad as it is now,most of this persistent rain will be gone by k.o.with perhaps the odd shower or two.So any one looking for the conditions to affect FGR might be a not as good as might of been,passing side and all that comes to mind.
