This is really not even a fine.
Here's the money that the Champions League generates per club
Each club that qualifies for the last 32 receives a fee of 15.25 million Euros. IN ADDITION there is a group stage bonus of 2.7 million Euros for winning a game and 900,000 Euros for a draw.
Teams the qualify for the last 16 get a 9.5 million Euro bonus
Teams that qualify for the quarter finals a 10.5 million Euro bonus
Teams that qualify for the semis 12 million Euros
Finalists get 15 million Euros each plus an additional 4 million Euros for the eventual winner.
The smaller clubs haven't a chance against this type of revenue opportunity.

I think that this has been a potentially terrible week for the Club.
Anyone thinking that relegation is impossible or God forbid we do go down and we'll bounce back should have a look at clubs that we used to play regularly such as Coventry City. Another example if it were possible of a club as poorly managed over the past 10 seasons as ours. By managed I mean from the team owners.
We have suffered the corrupt Palladini, the plaything of Briatore and the mind numbing stupidity of Fernandez who thought he could create a successful football team by throwing tens of millions at it yet had no one in control that knew anything about football.
But I digress.
We are where we are. We have a few players that have potential and in that category I include Eze and Chair. They have potential. Nothing more.
We need to nurture these players, they are the lifeblood of a selling Club as that what we have to be. Learn the lessons of Brentford. Look how our fans look down on Brentford (you're only here for the Rangers) whilst they buy players cheap and sell them on for tidy sums. Oh yeah, where are they in the league? What was the result against us.
Rather than ridicule we should applaud and learn from teams such as Brentford who under the stewardship of Mark Devlin, a hoopstar through and though laid the foundation for commercially Brentford being in a far, far better place than us. I see Mark is now waving his commercial wand at Huddersfield Town.
But I digress
A win against Leeds set the agenda for a continued run of form in the Cup. But for reasons I still cannot fathom despite all the explanations, a winning side was changed and the chance to progress to a game possibly worth in excess of £500,000 and had we get Man City who knows how much more. We played a side that was a shadow of the 11 that beat the team destined for the play offs if not automatic promotion. We then had the Wells saga. Were we ever in a position to sign him or was that just marketing spin? Whatever, shit happens and he moved on. He wasn't our player, we don't appear to have the ability to produce strikers via the junior sides. If you loan a car you have to give it back.
We lost at Blackburn, lost defenders in the bloody transfer window and lost to Bristol.
There is a long way to go in this season and my fear is that we are just not good enough not to be drawn into what will become a 5-6 team relegation fight. In effect we have a team of youngsters playing men. It's great to see them and so much better than the mercenaries that Phil Beard made even richer than they already were. BUT unless we start picking up results and if we do get drawn into a relegation dog fight then people will look back and say, this was the week that changed the season.

Just back and delighted to see so many youngsters getting a game. There must have been something in the air on NYE as we effectively picked up where we left off against Cardiff. This with a number of key changes to the team yet we played with pace, enthusiasm and plenty of skill. It was a great shame the crowd was so low.
We mustn't get ahead of ourselves, these kids are still very much in a learning phase of their career and 3 of our goals were the type that on other days don't go in but watch them again, I will be!
There will be games when the ball doesn't run for us, games when we lose when perhaps we should win. But keep some of these lads together then they will grow and flourish and surprise a few along the way.
One swallow doesn't make a summer but some of these young men are very exciting to watch and are so far removed from the mercenaries we employed a few seasons ago.

Got taken when I was 5, I'm now 63. Took my daughter now 36 when she was 5 and son now 32 also at 5.
You can change your car, your wife, your job....but you can never change your football club.
Last night hurt but a few years ago on a very wet Wednesday I drove to Forest on my own to watch the match. We lost 5-0.
I guess we make the most of the good times as they are few and far between
