    Now that the issue has been dealt with, surely McCabe is entitled to half of the 120 million that Sheffield Utd got for being promoted to the Prem, as that happened before this ruling?

    They didn't actually get anything for being promoted.
    They will get £100 million plus from tv rights this season because they are in the prem.
    This is income for the current season not prize money for last season.
    It is, or rather will be, income of the club not an owners' bonus.

    I'm quoting on the premise what I heard on football heaven last week, where the guest speaker said all clubs get 120 million for getting in to the Prem. Yes I know it comes from TV rights etc and not just given to them but, McCabe part owned the club that helped get them secured in to the Prem with his donations so, does he get half of the 'TV rights' the club will now be paid or not?
