I think we've banked €820,000 at this stage.
If we lose next Thursday we get an additional €300,000 along with €260,000 solidarity payment for not making either group stage, so that would bring it up to almost €1.4m.
But if we win we don't get that €560k, we get the base EL group stage €2.92m to add to the €820k, so in total €3.7m.
2016 was different as we reached the CL playoff round.
Think we made €7.1m in 2016 but when everything was taken out we banked about €3.3m.
The difference now though is Kenny won't be taking a giant bonus out of the winnings. I wonder if they even discussed such a bonus with Filippo when he was given the job.
The players got 40k each the last time. I'd hope that's considerably lower this time too, although they'd obviously deserve a nice one.
Think UEFA gave 40k travel expenses for each round, so that'll help with our 3 away ties so far.
No home crowds for the groups though and the Aviva will still probably be costly to open up.
Still a nice pot of cash on offer next Thursday.
