$15 million for Soca Warriors vs England

[boss]

That night, a media reception featuring approximately 200 invited BBC journalists will take place in Movie Towne.

That can't be right. I'd be surprised if the BBC took 200 journalists to the Olympics, must less a one-off friendly in T&T 

[superoli]

no doesnt sound right BBC normally have about 4-5 at most (my ex flatmate worked for the BBC) staff would be around 30-40

$15 million for Soca Warriors vs England
BY NICHOLAS CLARKE (Guardian)
 
Warner insisted that the sum was a fitting one for a centennial celebration and said that the T&TFF had no regrets about the cost. The monies will cover all expenses associated for the event.

We need to remember this line when he turn around and factor this $15 million as part of the expenses incurred to go to South Africa and vex because is his money he use and the government didn't help him.
He wouldn't remember the minimum 9 million from ticket sales he getting back either in those calculations.

Nah it is possible. I have worked for sporting events in the past and the standard media allotment is usually 200. BBC has the rights to the game so they will then turn around and sell those slots to other media companies.

I think probably once I have ever seen all 200 slots taken but it is always easier to scale down than to suddenly have to scramble to accommodate more media.

Remember, media have to be treated like Gods cause they are the ones who make or break the image of the country. They will cater for food and seating for 200 media so if only 100 come, they in comfort. We could wipe the floor with England and they will focus on how the media room was too small, they weren't expected, security brace them cause they forget their pass, the transport reach late, the food taste bad, etc and that's what half the match report will be about.

200 BBC journalist?...queen elizabeth comin too or wa

From reading the press release again, my guess is that that number includes all credentialed media....including production crew/camera men.  Seems the BBC plans on putting on a top-notch broadcast and not just the 2-3 stationary camera thing we're used to.

The match is live on Sky in the UK so that must be £1,000,000 so thats what $12,000,000 TTD

even if half that fee will make up the difference without any other media rights, game shou;d easily make a profit.
