Did you know that if Everton lose to Man Utd and they go on to win the FA Cup, Everton get £250,000 as part of the Rooney transfer, now that's an incentive to get beat.

This is going to be one hell of a game, cant wait

Re: fa cup round 5
 

But the prise money for this round is £120k, then TV money for the next round (all 4 games on TV in 6th round) is £260k, and if you win that you get £250k prise money. Much more than the £250k from rooney deal

But I got a nibble out of you Cafu01 so it was worth the post !!!

Re: fa cup round 5
 

And knowing the way Evertoians count......... 6 mil for a big stumbling jock thug they can now sell for oh lets think er zero, Danish midfielder they paid 5 mil for sold to a top Spanish club for 2 mil, so 250,000 for losing to scum well why not.

Good thing is though we are still in the F.A.Cup

Re: fa cup round 5
 

The Burnley v Blackburn derby game is on Sunday 20th at lunchtime, and is being televised live on BBC. So it will not clash with the Stanley game.

Re: fa cup round 5
 

But some people who usually go to Stanley will go to the game and might not be able to afford to come to stanley the day before

Re: fa cup round 5
 

Mickey mouse cup or not it is still a way in to europe.Only time the Burnley Team will get in to Europe is when they go on holiday.After the take over from mark Hughes i believe rovers have shown their fighting spirit.Cannot see burnley haveing a chance.They always sell on their best players anyway

Re: fa cup round 5
 

Apparently Burnley have seperated allocation tickets for the FA rival match, those who bought tickets for the leeds game get 2nd priority to season ticket holders probably in hope of a full house for the leeds game yesterday which wasn't the big sellout as soon fans was lead to beleive :rolleyes:

Re: fa cup round 5
 

Blackburn have sold all the 4,000 tickets.

Re: fa cup round 5
 

Burnley tickets go on sale to general public 2moz

Re: fa cup round 5
 

got told about the sham rovers caused trying to sell their tickets,phone lines jammed,it put you in a queue told you you were 34 in line,when you got to number 1 the phone just cut you off.......................then phoned back and when reaching number 1 again he got a message saying all tickets sold.LOL

Re: fa cup round 5
 

And it was about 30p a minute as well probably, so say 10 minutes = £3 , 10,000 people phone up, thats an extra 30k for the club, they will have did it on purpose to get more money.

Re: fa cup round 5
 

I very much doubt 10,000 people phoned up, especially when ques were about 30 people long on the phone lines.
