Gate Receipts

[MidDevon]

I have started a new thread as this subject has been raised in several postings this week

....and it makes frustrating reading

I believe that that the net gate receipts on Saturday are divided as follows
- Crawley 50%
- Torquay 40%
- FA Pool 10%

The FA Pool is not direct to the FA. It is shared between all competing clubs after the final

Crawley get more because they are a non-league team and so the rules are different to that previously posted.

Should Saturday's match go to a replay then the share would be as follows
- Crawley 47.5%
- Torquay 37.5%
- FA Pool 10%
- FA 5%

...again different rules as Crawley are a non league club

....I stand corrected if I am wrong, but I have been told this by a friend who works for the FA, allbeit in the referee section, but he is a bigger anorak than me, so there is a pretty good chance he is right!

I am not to worried they get a little bit more of the cut. We will make our money in the 5th round

Surely home and away clubs get an equal split?

[MidDevon]

They normally are, but Crawley are non league, so the slipt is as above for this round of the cup.

If we were up against a league team the split would be 45% to each club and 10% to the FA Pool.

Any replay would be 42.5% to each club, 10% to the FA Pool and 5% to the FA

We'll have to make sure we win then!
