The exciting part about that is that's just tv and prize money, doesn't include our gates or merchandise sales. We win it and it's pegged at about £125M, and it's almost impossible to judge the knock on effect in terms of growing the fanbase and extra sales. We gonna ave loadsa munny!
Have you deducted the £350 for a New window at the City bus?
Which they'll probably pocket and spend limited amounts on the team.
The way this day is going he's going to Everton.
Or Tranmere
On a sidenote, Max Meyer suspended till end of season (basically played his last game for the club) after public outburst.
[article]'I was never concerned about the money, otherwise I would have accepted the second improved offer,' he told Bild.
'That's why I find it a mess for Clemens Tonnies to say it on TV as if it were all about money. I simply did not want to stay with Schalke and work under Heidel. It's all about this. Lately, it just feels like bullying to me.
'I did not want to come out and talk. I've just had enough of always reading something about myself, but neither Heidel nor Tonnies talked to me.
'Now they can read how the last two years have been for me at Schalke.'[/article]

[article]Wolves captain Conor Coady says playing alongside team-mate Ruben Neves during this Championship-winning season has reminded him of his old Liverpool team-mate Steven Gerrard.
As a fellow six-foot midfielder, Coady, 25, himself drew comparisons with the England captain during his early days.
But the converted centre-half now sees Neves, 21, as being in Gerrard's class.
"Ruben Neves is by far one of the best players I've ever played with," Coady told BBC Radio Merseyside.
"When I was coming through, Steven Gerrard was playing more as a sitting midfielder under Brendan Rodgers.
"Ruben is very similar, in terms of his passing range. The way he manipulates the ball around his feet and picks out passes.
"And the goals he has been scoring are sensational. He's got six, all from outside the box.
"Obviously, people are still talking about the volley against Derby - that was the best of the lot, I was stood right behind it.
"But the one he scored at Sheffield Wednesday was totally different. He passed it into the bottom corner with the inside of his foot from about 25 yards - like a penalty."
Neves arrived last summer as the Championship's most costly signing, at a reported fee of £16.1m.
But he did not take long to be allocated his own song by the Molineux crowd and he has even been earmarked in recent weeks as a possible target for Champions League semi-finalists Liverpool.
But the Chinese-owned Wolves hierarchy have already made it clear that they want to keep hold of their prize assets in the top flight - and Coady is of the same mind.
"He's important to us as a player," added Coady. "He's very special. He's a very talented footballer but, more importantly, he's a great lad.
"He had a lot of people talking about him at the start of the season, saying 'he's coming from Porto, would he be able to adapt to the physicality?'
"But he's took to it like a duck to water. He's only 21 and he's playing well beyond his years.
"He came wanting to learn and he listens, he talks and he helps the other boys. Everything he's brought to the table has been fantastic.
"And what do you do when he keep scoring goals like that?" said Coady.
"You just give him a big kiss and say thank you."[/article]
Or the Isle of Man.
As has been reported - only two ways to get directly to Porto from the UK (London or Liverpool) and he has family there.
Some classy passes in there, I do get more of a Xabi Alonso feel than I do Gerrard mind.. which doesn't have to be a bad thing.
I'm with you. Got a definite Xabi vibe watching that.
Yep, perfect backup for the front three. Would be over the moon if we got him. I haven't paid much attention to him this season though, is he still performing?
As far as I know, Dortmund fans think Pulisic has been their best player this season with much of the team's creativity and attacking threat coming from him. His numbers – 4 league goals and 6 assists – are not particularly impressive, but that's surely going to improve. He's only 19 and is already a key player at a team like Dortmund, you can't ask for much more.
Who has watched him enough to form an opinion? Free is my kinda price but he needs to be right.
