Combined with the TV money from the original tie, the reasonable crowd at Ibrox and all the over benefits, we'll have made a tidy sum from this game, even if we are knocked out. Add that to the money we've already made from the Co-operative Insurance Cup run, and what we'll get from the final, and you're easily tlaking about over £500,000 coming into the club in the next few months.
This is fantastic news, considering this wasn't budgeted for. As the £300,000 shortfall after Setanta's collapse also wasn't budgeted for, there should be no repeat of last summer when various people at the club kept claiming there was no money so we couldn't sign more players.
