Chorley FC get financial boost after win against Derby County


Chorley FC pulled off a stunning upset to win 2-0 against Derby County in the FA Cup third round on Saturday.
The victory will be rewarded with a healthy financial boost to Chorley's coffers courtesy of the FA Cup prize fund - with more money up for grabs if they progress further.
Although the FA confirmed the prize money fund will be reduced this season after the pandemic caused financial havoc, winners in each round are able to benefit from a substantial pot of cash.
The fund sees £61,500 on offer to the winners of third-round ties.
