So many comments being made about how small a club Blackpool are, but they're bigger than Wigan!
So pleased for Blackers and Holloway!

Cardiff won't go bust so forget any ideas of that.

They will be given the full gate receipts of today including Blackpools share which will wipe out the tax bill and some!

Well played Blackpool!!

I don't think you have a full understanding of their debts. Today's gate receipts wont do much to dent them.

Why would they be given Blackpool's share of the gate? Just because Blackpool have been promoted doesn't mean they aren't entitled to the cash from THEIR fans!

Depends if the Malaysian consortiunm are still interested. Otherwise:

BBC Sport They have survived several High Court winding-up orders over the season and have estimated debts of £15m as a Malaysian consortium prepare to invest in the club with Peter Ridsdale standing down as chairman.


There's no way that the 82,244 people today have paid enough to "wipe out their debts and then some" - that would make it an average of £200 a ticket...

Well even so, it won't be anywhere near enough to make even a small dent in their debts!

That's a pretty good deal there.

It'll certainly help Cardiff, but no way it's clearing all their debts. Even at £50 a ticket for 80,000 fans that's still only about £4m.

Or even a full understanding of the distribution of play-off ticket money. The money from the 4 semi-final matches plus the final is split between the 4 play-off qualifiers.

Its not even a serious discussion, his comment so absolutely riciudlous It must have been a pisstake or a fishing trip. If reading can sell half of our squad, have two years of parachute payments, two years of high prem tv money and still be borderline in the black, one trip at wembley for a club with 15 million pounds debt is not going to wipe the slate clean. :lol: :lol:
