and percentage of the 700 gate and a share of the next round gate. The Wings will get a further windful based on the number of replays in the FA Cup this season from the third round onwards.
Basically just hope that the premier league clubs have a few replays as 5% of all replay gates from the first round go into a pool shared by the clubs who played in the first round proper.
As was stated yesterday this is one of the prizes for promotion last year .... a great chance to make money and get some publicity Well done all not just for last season but for doing the job yesterday, Who ever we get in the first round will be a maximum of two leagues above us so we should go into it trying to win as we tonked two teams last year one league above us.
Hopefully we get Wolves of Sheffield United at home and are one of the three live games, however if we draw at a league club first round then BT Sport will be showing two replays live so there is a second chance, if we dont get a league club we have a good opportunity of getting a round closer to the big boys dream game.

I thought that that could be the case because a number of clubs knocked out at round one last year were surprised to find out that they copped the "replay" bonus - Braintree included, I think. I wondered whether that was the case and whether it also applied where clubs were not subject to any TV coverage.
