bank-bursting (comparative more bank-bursting, superlative most bank-bursting)

  1. Extremely lucrative or profitable.
    • 2024 August 29, Alex Mills, “Larne headed for Conference League group stages as Andy Ryan hat-trick secures historic Play-Off joy”, in Belfast Telegraph[1]:
      The prize now for Larne is massive… something in the region of £3million. They are the envy of every other Irish League club by forcing their way in with the big boys in the UEFA Conference League.
      And, with the possibility of a bank-bursting draw, perhaps against the likes of Chelsea, Real Betis or Fiorenta[sic], the sky is the limit for Lynch and his men.
