Can I just point out again that Marco Materazzi is back from injury in this game?

How much money did you get???

BratPack · October 26, 2010, 08:14:51 AM

2 mill in prize money, just over another million in gate takings/sponsorship/tv. I think I made about 3.2 million on the day

Very nice job BP. I saw the crowd of 84k so was wondering how much you would get!
You can go ahead and buy some star players now!!

Justin Bieber · October 26, 2010, 10:01:12 AM

That's a hell of a crowd :o. Who gets the gate takings though as it was at Wembley?

3.2mil :o :o :o :o :o :o. Going to go on a spree BP? :P.

I would assume the gate takings was split evenly

BratPack · October 26, 2010, 10:39:51 AM

Haven't decided yet HP. Considering I'm already 11 points behind CF in the league I may just bank it for next season. But there are a couple of guys that are tempting as well. I'm bringing in one guy but that's on a player trade not using the bank. I see maybe one more transfer before the end and then I'll sit on what's left but I'm not going to go all out I don't think

The players better get more fatigue flying to Wembley and back :P.

Nice plan BP. Sit on it then get some money from end of season. Have like 2 weeks to decide when the season is over before the next season starts. Plenty of time to transfer some players in ;).

BratPack · October 26, 2010, 10:51:01 AM

I am bringing in Edgar Davids on the player swap though. I just can't resist the glasses. :P

Justin Bieber · October 26, 2010, 11:08:53 AM

And that hair :o. Almost as mesmorizing as Mayne's :P. Now to work on getting Santa Cruz and Ashley Young in 8).

BratPack · October 26, 2010, 11:18:10 AM

I'd like Santa Cruz but I think I have a better option from a financial standpoint. He's the other transfer I was referring to which I've decided I'm going to do. That'll give me a three pronged striking attack with Ortega and Rukastvya and really Mark Bridge isn't going to do more than spot duty for those two. He's expendable to keep the price down on this one.

Justin Bieber · October 26, 2010, 11:21:57 AM

I already have a good attack so might sell one of the 3 big guns I have if the right offer comes along ;). Need to buy some good defenders and midfielders. Don't have alot of midfielders in my team :(.

chrisuzz · October 26, 2010, 05:05:40 PM

you got lucky BP ;) :P nah well played mate I shouldve made subs but all my guys had to lower fatigue :-\

I got 1mil for coming 2nd anyways

The guys I brought on weren't at 100% either. (Except Tiatto) but I figured with the up-tempo pace and the pressure of the final those fresh legs might make the difference.

Ironically it was Brosque, who'd been on all game who volleyed the winner
