Not sure how correct these figures are but just had a quick look online.

1st Round: £18k FA, £6.75k TV highlights, £15k S4C, 45% gate receipts say £15k. Total £54.75k
2nd Round: £27k FA, £6.75k TV highlights, 45% gate receipts say £15k. Total £48.75k
3rd Round: £67.5k FA, £6.75k TV highlights, £48k BBC Wales, 45% gate receipts say £40k. Total £162.25k
So total to date approx £265.75 plus not sure what we get from radio. Its £7.25k per game for 5 Live or Talksport so lets say another £10k ish which gives a total of approx £275k. Not bad.

4th Round: £90.5k FA, £6.75k TV highlights, £144k live TV, 45% gate receipts (Plymouth got £338k v Liverpool last season) plus radio. Potentially, for a giant killing at one of the big boys £580k if not more ! Plus TV etc monies for Round 5 ! Kerching !!!

not sure about the TV money but I don't think we get the prize money till the end of the season. I remember Chris Blight saying about the FA trophy money didn't come thru for months after the end of the season. No idea if this has changed.

The BBC reporter on tumbledriergate stated that the club has made £250k so far out of the FA Cup so not a million miles away.

That's probably the best bet for us anyway, see us through the summer months when we've no income coming in but does anyone know how the prize money is actually paid? Do we get £18k for round 1 then another £27k for round 2 then another £67k for round 3 making a total of £112k or is £67k the total prize money we've amassed so far?

We earn the prize money per round, so yes, we get 18k for winning rd 1, 27k for winning rd two etc etc
