£75,000 tv money, and another 20k if they lose, more if they win!

What's the annual profit/loss for a club like Chorley in a normal season?

[superniko]

If they can get into tier 2 (unlikely) then they’d be allowed 2k in.

Another £40k or so there and great for the fans who can see Rooney at Victory Park.

No idea but on an average gate of 1,000 at average price of £13 they'd get £299,000 a season on 23 games, so a third of that to come from a 3rd round defeat is good news

That's defeatist talk Ozz. I would wager that Peterborough at the top of Div 1 are a better team than Derby at the bottom of the Championship.

Not making any predictions but Chorley certainly have a realistic chance of winning this cup tie.

What a great day that was.  Non league Wimbledon beat First Division Burnley at the dome.  Never saw such long faces in the pubs round Accy that night.  Was fun.

Richard Guy the Wimbledon goalkeeper who produced heroics that day.

I met him cleaning his car in the Constituency I was fighting a few years later. I shook him warmly by the hand and told him I didn't mind in the least that he was a lifelong Tory...

Adam Henley on the bench for Chorley 😳

[RoverDom]

Saw that, hadnt realised he'd dropped so low down. 

[Derbyshire Blue]

COME ON CHORLEY!!!!!

[USABlue]

Well done Chorley, bit of an easy win that.  Cloughie must be turnin in his grave.

Dickie Guy, heroics against Leeds in the next round too.  Damn the cup was great then wasn't it?  Hereford turning Newcastle over.  Special days them.
