QuoteMrs Barista="Mrs Barista"Seems like 2009 was a marginally better year financially for some clubs. In 2008, the only club (I think) to make a profit was Hull FC. The league table of profit/loss for 2009 is as follows (assuming I've got the right entities) and shows 4 clubs in profit and a further 3 with a loss < £100k (although I'm being a bit generous with Wigan and using their pre impairment/depreciation/interest number). Leeds profit is before a hefty exceptional income of £3m from a transaction with Yorkshire CC. The average loss excluding Harlequins, which IMO distorts the underlying picture, is -£103,630.
Leeds 720,871
Warrington 159,514
Hull FC 77,141
Castleford 26,679
Salford -19,651
Wigan -40,715
Bradford -72,209
Wakefield -202,379
Huddersfield -823,739
St Helens -861,810
Harlequins -1,936,804
Average excluding Harlequins -103,630
This excludes clubs whose accounts are overdue, ie Hull KR and Crusaders.'"

QuoteAdeybull="Adeybull"Can I suggest that BB and Mrs B retire to PM? I'm an accountant myself, yet with this war of attrition I lost the will to live about two pages back...

Strange how when you mentioned what you do for a living Mrs B suddenly backs off.
