Anything's possible! Just remembering back to that day. I was in the bath, listening on the radio, and nearly drowned myself when Gillies scored! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little chance of progressing to next round. (and hence no reward money) Potential to get battered. No massive gate receipt as it's a home tie (roughly half of which goes to Man C) Maybe some money if we get selected for TV coverage - no idea how much that would be? Interesting/exciting tie? Yes. "Good" tie? I'm not so sure. (Also, it does look a little bit tinpot when some of our fans get SO excited about simply playing Man City.) Tinpot? By playing the most successful side in recent history which potentially will feature a WC winner and the most lethal striker across Europe currently?

We'll make 300k alone from TV income. My memory might be playing tricks on me but I'm sure in the league Cup semi Man City gave us their share of gate receipts?

Their keeper will then parry it back into our path, the taker will round the keeper who will then trip them up and we'll get another penalty.
