Rangers’ earnings today have been wildly misreported by moron UK press who want you to believe, for some reason, that the UEL earned more than the CL would have.
After a deeply misinterpreted tweet and report from respected blogger Swiss Rambler detailed his estimates for Rangers’ earnings, somehow media outlets interpreted it as a £50M windfall.
Sadly that’s not even remotely accurate, and the amount Rangers secured is indeed around £17M-£30M.
The tweet in question made a glaring typo, and the media, unable to interpret this, misreported the total:
“A few people have asked how much #RangersFC earned for reaching the Europa League final. My estimate is £17m (€19.3m) TV money. Would have got another €4m if they had won the final.”
Unfortunately SW excluded the word ‘including’ before ‘TV’.
His graph produces the real numbers and confirms TV cash was about £2M.
The final total around £17M in terms of raw prize money and TV rev, with the circa up to £15M for gate receipts taking into the £30M range.
It’s not half bad, but it’s sadly not the £50M the media are fawning about.
Still, makes a change that they lie about good news for once, isn’t it!
Aye I saw that , it’s excellent return for a brilliant campaign (Goldson/Wright mistake apart !!) I hope GVB gets a good slice to improve the squad. I still think we will sell 2 perhaps 3. Then the CL ….come on
