After our cup win perhaps we can now buy that new defender?

Or not as the case may be. 
Look at the prize money on offer, makes ‘ Bulls Eye’ prizes look like millionaires paradise.

the second round will
receive 7,000 pounds in
prize money. Sixteen losing
teams will collect 10k
pounds from the third round. The EFL Cup

Reaching the second round earns us the princely sum of £7k, then we are probably going to play in front of a sub 4000 crowd at Wycombe.

Can’t see it making much impact on our £38.4m loss.

If the new defender is at Frome or Mangotsfield I reckon we’re probably covered.

Are Caraboa responsible for the prize money? If they are then they are getting a lot of publicity for minimal outlay. 

Mind you, considering you can buy two cans of their "drink"* for £1 in Home Bargains, I an guessing they don't have a huge profit margin to play with.

 

*To be fair their Mango one is ok especially at that price.

At least they have stopped that bonkers draw they did in the first year or two of their sponsorship.

I'm using this an excuse to post the video of Bullseye's greatest prize ever:

Unfortunately the League Cup, in it;s many forms has always been noted for it's poor financial rewards?   Even when we went on our Man U/Man City adventure.......apart from a couple of decent gate receipts, we only made peanuts, and a tube of Pringle's?  Although it was fun, and it got us a lot of good publicity ?

It has. We probably made more from the TV coverage than we did in prize money. The two Manchester home games made us a good few quid in gate receipts/merchandise too and the run MAY have got us better fees for Bobby, Joe and Aden I suppose.

It probably didn`t cover the £10m we had to pay for Matty Taylor though...........................................................
