Surely this boils down to the dilema that we have, which is this:

a) It would be nice to progress as far as possible in the League trophy

as against:

b) It would be nice to get as many coffers in the pot as possible.

Of course, these are not neccessarily incompatible. It would be nice to go all the way, but lets be realistic -and no, I am not a surrender merchant.My understanding is that gate money is splt 45/45/10% after operational expenses are taken out. Therefore we have to look at what is our optimum path. As such it would be best to get a nice home game against one of the less favoured teams, followed by an away game against one of the big boys not yet in the competition due to european comitments.

Old Trafford, Anfield or Stamford Bridge would be excellent.
