HJB: Feb 16, 2011; I can't get enough of are Dan

Does anyone know how much Lincoln made on the tie/cup run in total? I'm sure it was astronomical for a club their size.

From February:

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/chairman-bob-dorrian-delighted-as-fa-cup-run-boosts-lincoln-s-finances-1-8400093 posted:

Saturday's 1-0 win at Premier League Burnley made the club at least �500,000 and a potential clash with giants Arsenal lies in wait for City if fellow non-League club Sutton fail to pull off another shock on Monday night.

Dorrian, who missed the game as he is in South Africa, is pinching himself and told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: " We probably made gross...close to half a million just out of the Burnley tie and almost certainly we're going to get another �250,000 TV money.

"The money from the gate revenue at Arsenal is difficult to calculate really but let's say they had 50,000 people there [it was actually 59,454], I think that would take us to close to half a million again. So over the two games - Burnley and Arsenal - we could probably make gross about a million pounds.

This is how things were going the same time last year:

While the Imps can boast better finances this year, the club still has issues to look into. Of the �165,000 raised last year, �108,000 of that was through the issuing of bonds.

The idea allowed applicants to invest �1,000 to �10,000 in the club and benefit from an interest of three per cent. It means two years down the line the club will have to look into paying that debt back.

Cooke, though, believes that is still a long way ahead.

"We are well aware of the situation," said Cooke. "However, two years down the line things could be very different. If we are promoted we will be operating on a different financial structure.

"What we can certainly feel is that we are heading in the right direction right now."

That's Spurs hosed in the league if Kane is out for an extended period of time.

Son was subjected to chants of �DVD� and �He�s selling three for a fiver� from the visiting enclosure. The reference to selling DVDs is considered to be a racist slur when directed at an Asian person. After Son�s first goal the Tottenham right-back, Kyle Walker, who was an unused substitute, pointed towards the Millwall fans � in an apparent acknowledgment of the chants.

Chelsea: Courtois; Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill; Moses, Matic, Kante, Alonso; Willian, Costa, Hazard.
Subs: Begovic, Terry, Zouma, Chalobah, Fabregas, Pedro, Batshuayi.

Manchester United: De Gea; Smalling, Jones, Rojo; Valencia, Herrera, Pogba, Darmian; Mkhitaryan, Rashford, Young.
Subs: Romero, Bailly, Blind, Lingard, Carrick, Fellaini, Mata.

So either United are playing five at the back or one of Valencia or Damian is playing in midfield.

Darmian played wingback for a long time before he ever played fullback really. Of course given the situation it's definitely 5 at the back.
