How much did we get for getting to Wembley?
You've gotta think about 5 mill from the play off run
It’s probably a couple of million at the very most.You've gotta think about 5 mill from the play off run

Yeah think that’s about right.It’s probably a couple of million at the very most.

I’m sure the EFL take a sizeable amount of the cup final ticket revenue.Did a rough estimate which brought it out at about £4.5m. Will try to note below:
Coventry - 30,000 tickets sold @ £20pp = £600,000
Middlesbrough - 30,000 tickets sold @ £20pp = £600,000
Sunderland - 40,000 tickets sold @ £20pp = £800,000
Luton - 10,000 tickets sold @ £20pp = £200,000
Total £2.2m split 4 ways = £550k
Wembley - 80,000 tickets sold @ £50pp = £4m
Assuming we get all Wembley ticket revenue, as seems to be the precedent, that’s £4.55m on fag packet calculations.

Oh bugger, forgot about that aspect. Think they take 50% of the overall pot. £2.255m in that case.
Either way I think we can safely say it’s not enough to make any sizeable difference. When Vik goes that could be our big pay day of 15m.

Additional merchandise too
There'll be TV money and sponsorship needed to be factored in as well. Difficult to gauge how much the club would've received for the latter.
No TV money for play offs. All goes to EFL.
There is more info on the other thread about this. Gentleman’s agreement that the winner gives their portion to the loser. So my guess is 4.5-5 million in total.
How have you arrived at that figure, it's way out! Nowhere near that.
Semi finals worth about £300K to us. Final about £1.7 million if Luton gave us their share, otherwise half that.
Really? That’s fucked up if true.No TV money for play offs. All goes to EFL.
How much is 'biggest financial prize in world football' worth?
Coventry City will play Luton Town in this season’s Championship play-off final on Saturday. The two teams meet knowing a place in the Premier League is up for grabs, with a spot in England’s top flight holding the potential to dramatically change either club’s fortunes both on and off the...theathletic.com

Behind a paywall, but if it's the article I think it is, it's just a comparison of revenues between PL and Championship.
We get 12.5% of all semi final gate receipts after costs and 25% of final (or 50% if Luton gift theres to us). That's all we get. As many others have stated it'll £2 million or thereabouts.
Has anyone mentioned the extra cost? These used to be written into the financial rules.
The huge policing bill (I've rarely seen a football game more over-policed than the home leg vs Boro) from all games get taken out of the pot, as do travel costs, hotel costs....... Collectively, this'd comfortably take a six figured sum out of the club's pockets.
You couldn't swing a cat at Wembley without hitting a copper either.
