I.T.K Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 It"s new payment where the OF receive payments from the other SPL clubs as thank you for them flying the SPL flag in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny1874 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Any idea what Uefa pay clubs that reach the Group Stages of the Europa league? According to wiki its 1st qualifying round: ?90,000 2nd qualifying round: ?90,000 3rd qualifying round: ?90,000 Playoffs: ?90,000 Group stage: ?1,000,000 Group match victory: ?120,000 Group match draw: ?60,000 1st knock out round: ?180,000 2nd knock out round: ?270,000 Quarter-finals: ?360,000 Semi-finals: ?630,000 Losing Finalist: ?2,000,000 Winning the Final: ?3,000,000 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Europa_League#Prize_money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Grimes Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 http://www.uefa.com/uefa/management/finance/news/newsid=80851.html Date of the article is pretty old but gives a rough idea. We've probably lost out on ?200k max but Rangers have been deprived of c. ?10m. I'm fine with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adayinmay Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 What are solidarity payments? Never have I heard of 'Solidarity Payments'. Dont believe they exist. Rangers going out of CL is GOOD for the rest of Scottish football as it stops them getting ?15m more than the rest of us and pulling further away.

allystrachan Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 doncaster defends the SPL by saying goodwillie' has gone to the EPL and we have alot of managers in the EPL erm.... surely our league would be better if these good footballers and managers were actually involved in it?

Patrick Bateman Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 The man has no interest in improving the quality of the Scottish league. This has been evidenced by those comments and his incorrect insistence that a 10 team SPL was the "only" option for going forward. He knows absolutely nothing and should be forced from his position ASAP. He's killing our game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig_ Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 One or both of the OF have been getting to the CL group stages regularly, and it's led to the shit state we're in now. Two points: a) the best thing that could happen to Scottish football is a more competitive league without the massive disparity between clubs and the best thing that could happen to the Scottish national team is for the best young Scottish players to go down south and learn their trade in a quality league!

Cheers. ?200K to us is a drop in the ocean given where we are but ?10M to the dirties is a completely different picture. The earlier they and their dirty neighbours crash out of Europe the better.

colinmaroon Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Not Fit for Purpose Doncaster reckons that other SPL teams sharing about a million between them is better for Scottish Football because Rangers would get ?14.3 million!

Honestly, that is what that halfwit effectively said!!! but you can see where he's coming from. he isn't considering the comparative figures and the resultant effect within the scottish game.... because there isn't supposed to BE any competition within the scottish game. making the scottish game more competitive doesn't appear to matter for doncaster. simply have the old firm getting more and more money and throw a few scraps down and everyone wins. has anyone in power actually considered what the benefits could be from a more competitive domestic game?

Indeed the OF think that offering paltry amounts for the best players from their competitive set is akin to them filtering money down through the system but what the Goodwillie transfer shows is that fresh money coming into the SPL from Blackburn is better...
