I have just had a text saying ESPN are covering the Villa game. No date or time given though. More TV money, we will be able to pay off our debts unlike the 82ers(just for you wize)
This is great news won't have to go to the game now, will be able to watch it from the comfort of my own home.
hi, when espn televised newport v shrews they gave shrews 67500 plus 18500 for winning the tie. perhaps you may get more against villa. hope you do. thank goodness for rainy days
more than that gastro the tv fee is £123,500 per club and the winning clubs get £67,500 from the fa prize fund as well. so if we win this game we will get £191,000. add that to the money received from winning round 1 and being on itv for round 2 and winning that, that should hopefully allow buckle or another manager get some 'quality' in the door in jan. hopefully a attacking midfielder and cb and striker who can score plenty. 5 fa cup ties have been selected for live television coverage:- Saturday 7 January 2012 Birmingham v Wolves (12.30pm) – Live on ESPN Bristol Rovers v Aston Villa (5.30pm) – Live on ESPN Sunday 8 January 2012 Manchester City v Manchester United (1.00pm) – Live on ITV1 Peterborough United v Sunderland (3.30pm) – Live on ITV1 ----- The draw for the Fourth Round Proper will follow this tie at approx 5.30pm on ITV1 Monday 9 January 2012 Arsenal v Leeds United (7.45pm) – Live on ESPN
You will only see premiership clubs now on TV, but fair play to you stinking lot getting it twice in a row
The performance in the last round must have helped get us televised, because it was an entertaining tie.
if i was the gas chairman i would bank the lot towards any overdraught. there may be a chill wind coming soon from the banks especially if the euro goes tits up and banks start calling in overdraughts. any way i hope you beat villa and are on telly at home to man city in the 4th round. but i genuinely fear grim financial restraints are upon us
