I have no idea how far we’ll get in the plan. Here are the values of the top three clubs:

FC Porto – 127m Euros
SL Benfica – 266m Euros
Sporting – 111m Euros

Us? 11.5m Euros

Anyone else of worth?

Braga – 16.25m
Vit. Guimaraes – 11.5m


Everybody else is lower than 10 mill

So this would not be a major shock to the sporting world if we managed to gain consistency and move up. Even cracking the top three would be great, but not the biggest news item in football. Edging out Sporting has happened four times in the last ten years. It could happen right here in Funchal Madeira. Now, if we had a higher place than either Benfica or Porto, that’d be interesting. Porto has won 8 of the last 10 seasons, and Benfica the other two.
