If it's Bath can we just let them be at home? Nice bit of nostalgia.

I wonder how the gate revenue is divided up, and whether there are any financial incentive to progress the rounds?
The FA Trophy
Season 2014-2015
Payments made from The FA's Prize Fund
Preliminary Round winners (64) £2,500
First Round Qualifying winners (72) £2,700
Second Round Qualifying winner (36) £3,250
Third Round Qualifying winners (40) £4,000
First Round Proper winners (32) £5,000
Second Round Proper winners (16) £6,000
Third Round Proper winners (8) £7,000
Fourth Round Proper winners (4) £8,000
Semi Final winners (2) £16,000
Final runners-up (1) £25,000
Final winners (1) £50,000
Amounts are per club in each round. Numbers in brackets represent the number of winning clubs per round. The prize money is cumulative.
Gate receipts are divided equally.
Wow that's well over £100k if can go all the way, plus tv receipts and gate money. Huge amount for our level, let alone a club below us. Methinks it's worth taking seriously as long as our long as our league position isn't compromised. |

Loving the panic that this competition will ruin our season! Have to laugh.

This total doesn't include gate receipts, which for the semi final would be a full house and I'm betting that we would take large numbers to wembley. |

Two points.
1. The FA Trophy win can act as a springboard for your club and its future success. We won the FA Trophy in 2002, the Conference the following year and League Two in 04/05. It'll help Clarke build and develop his team and okay, maybe its not the most glorious of successes but why turn your nose up at it? GJ swears that the Trophy win was the spark that set our club alight and although the fire seems to be dying down a bit, that win at Villa Park helped us as a club enormously.
2. Sad to say but with your record with law breaking and the police lately, can't see them letting you play at the same time as City. Why not switch it to the Sunday, offer cheap tickets then the blokes get down to the football while the wives/girlfriends (or both if you are blessed) can go shopping?
Job jobbed.

There is no way at all that A&S Plod will let us play the same day as them. No chance whatsoever

Although tickets were good value last season in the Championship, they went up this season after relegation, never a good mix. Nowadays, prices aligned with the fact the team aren't winning every week means we only seem to get 4,000+ gates when there's a sizeable away contingent. Still nice to see the team playing League football (and this isn't a dig, I promise!!). I watched YTFC for 32 years on non-league before we got promoted and I'm still living the dream. Just. |

Don't worry mate, always liked Yeovil, have been pleasantly surprised how well our crowds have held up despite our poor start and prices remaining the same. Away games have been interesting at some bizarre 'stadiums' especially where we've occupied three sides of the ground. I think we're averaging home support in the top ten of league 1, which is amazing really, mind you what happens next season if we don't get up first go I don't know but I think the hard core support will always remain. Anyhow, hope GJ and TS can turn it around for you again..... |
