Maybe a simplistic view of it all

Without taking into account his chances of getting any money back from scum, addtional gate money from a potential promotion, less additional salary costs, the sums to this seem quite simple to me.

He has bet £20 million to get back £60 million in TV cash terms at odds of 2 to 1.
