    If the final against went to Ibrox you are looking at round 50,000 of a gate x £25 = £1.25 million to he shared by both teams and SFA/SFPL

    Lets say a min of £400,000 each club
    If it was a Parkhead there would be 10,000 more at £25

    So in summary, a helluva lot
    Plus the prize money - The winners get £110k - runners-up £82k and the beaten semi's get £47.5k

    Pleasing

    Do we really think ICT vs Aberdeen is going to sell 50,000?
    No chance. it will be about the 30,000 with the vast majority dressed ovine. edit- I see the question was if the yamtards had reached the final. Yes they would fill Ibrox for a sheep v hearts final and yes I meant ovine.

    I think I heard on the BBC commentary that the venue has still to be decided.

    As an aside - how much in £££'s did that defeat cost the Yams today?

    Near/Sell out at Parkhead/Ibrox, plus the usual income generated from being in a final = £0.5M each

    Nothing like it, but Hearts v Aberdeen would not have been too far short of capacity, now that the sheep are on the march

    I did a wee google on that and ended up on one of the tramps threads from this time last year. Someone on there said that in 2008 the actual prizes were £110k for the winners and £82k for runners-up, then there's ticket split and tv money.

    IIRC, I think we made about £1-1.5M from our 2007 run, but that was for the whole comp.

    An interesting aside on the thread was one of the comments from the deluded ones...

    "Having both cups in trophy room PRICELESS,girfuy lochend tramps"

    How did that work out for ye ya gormless tw@t?

    Edit

    Oops! Missed a page of comments and didn't realize the question had been answered

    Was today the day that their luck finally ran out ? After so many breaks, lucky wins and successful penalty shoot outs - they lose a 94th minutes equaliser, fail to be 9 men and then lose on penalties. Such bad luck.

    The whole crumbling, stinking edifice is surely about to crumble now.

    Yep Going through to the final would have given them a desperately needed cash wind fall. Hopefully after today a few more direct debits are cancelled in frustration causing an even further financial loss. I can see today being the last straw for a few hearts guys, I actually know a hearts fan who has considered cancelling his direct debits to FoH as he's simply getting fed up with how things are going.


    ooooh happy daaays! GIRFUY

    This is a cracker - this has to be a Hibby. Brilliant

    Financially Hearts will be fine. We are not in some ridiculous situation where a number of baking sales are trying to dent.a 30m hole. Should we need funds the amounts involved will be achieved.

    Yes it would ave been great to have the cup final income but there it is. Relying on anything in football is pointless, esp when the JTS are involved

    Fact- Hearts manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory against 9 man ICT to go out of league cup and miss out on much needed cash

    Barry- Brave Hearts youngsters lose out to physical ICT side whilst getting cash windfall from cup run. Brave Hearts youngsters will not be distracted from relegation battle by little cup final.

    naming yourself after the players who tried to tell them they were being run by a bampot must be a bit of a clue

    Evidence of Stevenson bottling it. Although it looks like that might have been lockes judging by the colour?

    Might explain the desperate lengths they went to trying to sign Skacel. Not so much to make the final, but to increase the gate at the semi final.

    I posted similar some time ago but I really think its a bit of both with the main priority reaching the final & the financial windfall that would have brought. Don't forget the final's only 6 weeks away in the middle of March, the month in which BDO say they'll probably run out of money. The sale of King may have bought a little time but not enough. Oh, & by the way, in those 6 weeks Yams have only 1 home game, vs Celtc where there will be no home walk ups!! They were due to play Dons at home day before LC final!!! I don't see Dons looking to bring that game forward! Most pleasing!

    They rearrange a fixture so Stevenson can play in the semi. He's on the bench, gives the ball away for ICT equaliser & doesn't take a pen!!! Chicken Karma!!
