Arsenal or Bournemouth

[Berkshire Blue]

Will probably be on TV then = more cash for the club.

Following last night's results, we are now the lowest ranked team in the FA Cup. All the others are either PL or CH.

Is it true that we receive a windfall of £250,000 for being the last team in our league left in the round?

[New Forester]

And the highest ranked team in the EFL Trophy!

Plus around £250k if the match is broadcast live?

There won't be any replays for a draw on the night. Hence no further earnings from this round.

So we'd best make the most of the earnings from the game and look forward to £720k in the quarter finals! Plus more TV money.

[This Time Next Year]

Semi-Final losers (2) £900,000
Final runners-up (1) £1,800,000

Quarter-Final winners (4) £1,620,000
Semi-Final winners (2) £2,700,000
Final winners (1) £1,800,000

There you are. Learn something every day.

Following last night's result, we are now the only south coast team left in the competition. Can we have another £250k, please?

[<dj.>]

We're also the only team not based on mainland Britain. Can we have another 250K for that?

[BlueinPLtwenty]

Match set for monday 2nd March,(Live on BT Sport) also means that the Rochdale game moved back a day to the friday 28th February

[Pompey Penguin]

Meanwhile, Arsenal will play in the Europa league on Thursday 27th, at home to Olympiakos. No PL game at the weekend. So they will get an extra day's rest.

Wife’s birthday. Only just been forgiven for saying at a party that the happiest moment of my life was being at Wembley for the final whistle in 1966. Can I push my luck?
