I’m presuming that we get another £50 K for winning today? Do we also get some TV appearance money for this and the final? and I think 100K for the eventual winners , but at worse more money for being runners up or is the last money you earn the semi - final winners money? Think it’s £50k for winning the semi and being runners up, another £50k on top for winning. Plus tv money and gate receipts etc. There's no prize money for winning in the semi final. There is 20k TV money though. We are certain of at least another 50k come April 3rd. |

It’s the same thing. £50k has been earned as a result of last night that converts to £100k if we win the final. Presume they like to just have technically ‘awarded’ something to the beaten finalists.

It has just occurred to me that aside from a technicality we have now beaten 4 FA Cup winners in cup competitions-Coventry Wimbledon Portsmouth and now Wigan AFC Wimbledon have never won the FA Cup. MK Dons under their previous guise have. Two different clubs |

MK Dons under their previous guise have. Two different clubs Actually not true either. The records of Wimbledon FC including their FA Cup win (and the replica trophy they received) belong to the London Borough of Merton, not to AFC Wimbledon, and especially not to MK Dons. Whilst Wimbledon FC actually became MK Dons, they became a new entity and gave up the rights etc to anything Wimbledon FC, so actually MK Dons aren't (yes we know they are sort of) the same club either. |

Maybe a bit of a random question but can anyone tell me when it will be decided what colours we are wearing in the final?

Last nights win adds yet another astonishing feat by that little pub team from Surrey. In truth we should not have needed penalties, we created chances to have won the match in normal time.
The way we play the high press and work so hard off the ball is quite amazing, at no point could Wigan get away from us, and when they had spells, the defence marshaled by the incredible and best defender in lge 2 Ben Goodliffe looked unbreakable. Then we have the mad Aussie Deano, he goes in goal puts his cape on and becomes BouzanisMan - Scores one and saves two, as cool as you like.
41 years since the last Wembley trip, that crossbar is still shaking, but the 1st ever appearance in a professional final as a senior club at the home of Football.
I even saw MarkF smile last night.

So you’re agreeing with me that AFC Wimbledon have never won the FA Cup? Bearing in mind their whole existence has been outside the London Borough of Merton save for 2 or 3 years. They’re a completely different team. |

A great win. This whole supporting Sutton United since 2017 thing is going rather well.

Maybe a bit of a random question but can anyone tell me when it will be decided what colours we are wearing in the final? Surely both teams will wear their regular colours as there is no clash...amber versus red/white. Somehow I would feel very disappointed if we played at Wembley in a change strip, after all it is not strictly necessary. |
