Why we should aim for second!!!
It's worth a load a helluva amount of dosh!!!
You get 15% of the SPL commercial pot for finishing runners up but only 9.5% for third.
Not sure how much it is say its £10m per year.
2ND WOULD POCKET £1.5M
3RD WOULD POCKET £950,0000
if its £20m
£3m compared to £1.9m etc.
Big difference to a club on our income levels!!!
