A prize that exceeded any previous prizes on offer to a team or individual from a football match, including the Champions League final or World Cup final, any boxing match, horse race, golf tournament or tennis event, or any single event in the major sports in America, home to four of the world\u2019s richest sports leagues.<\/p>\n<p>The \u00a395m-plus is new, extra income that Blackpool Football Club\u00a0will generate in the coming seasons as a result of winning at Wembley. Had they lost, nothing will be guaranteed on them: that is now Cardiff\u2019s fate, although the finalists seconded that the losers would receive 100% of the gate receipts.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AdSense Now!

The bottom club this season, Portsmouth, had revenue of \u00a331.8m in 2009-10, but new TV deals covering 2010-13 kick in this summer. Premier League sources expect the bottom club\u2019s central funds income to be \u00a340m-plus in the followingseason.<\/p>\n<p>If Blackpool Football Club\u00a0are demoted right away, they will earn another \u00a348m in parachute payments over the next four seasons, broken down into \u00a316m in years one and two after relegation, and \u00a38m in years three and four. So that\u2019s \u00a388m guaranteed from Premier League central funds, in the worse-case scenario.<\/p>\n<p>Related posts:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href='http:\/\/www.sevensidedcube.net\/sports\/2010\/youtube-brings-free-ipl-matches\/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Youtube brings free IPL Matches!'>Youtube brings free IPL Matches!<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href='http:\/\/www.sevensidedcube.net\/sports\/2010\/2010-world-cup-german-start-thursday-against-malta-with-a-friendly-match\/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: 2010 World Cup: Germany start Thursday against Malta with a friendly match'>2010 World Cup: Germany start Thursday against Malta with a friendly match<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href='http:\/\/www.sevensidedcube.net\/sports\/2010\/watch-uefa-champions-league-final-online\/' rel='bookmark' title='Permanent Link: Watch UEFA Champions League Final Online'>Watch UEFA Champions League Final Online<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/sevensidedcube\/OXLF\/~4\/lwe0PT7vyxE\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blackpool Football Club&#8217;s victory guarantees them the biggest windfall in global sport from the outcome of a single event: \u00a395m, and possibly more.
