League Two Side Plymouth's FA Cup Run Worth £1M, Club Chair Says

League Two side Plymouth Chair James Brent said that the team's third-round replay with Liverpool will help it earn more than £1M ($1.2M) from the FA Cup, according to the BBC. The Pilgrims "put on a dogged defensive display against a much-changed Liverpool side" to draw 0-0 at Anfield and set up a replay at Home Park. Plymouth has already had two televised ties, "with a third likely," as well as its share of Sunday's 52,692 gate. Brent: "It's approximately 20% of our turnover." Plymouth "is the largest city in England never to have had a top-flight side," and with a large group of supporters Brent believes tickets for the replay "will be in high demand." He added, "We took 35,000 to Wembley [for last season's League Two play-off final] and we only have about 16,000 tickets to sell" (BBC, 1/9).
