Quote: wakey_saint "I would hope that moving back to our own stadium (where attendances should improve and we wont have to pay Widnes 15,000 per game to play there) should make a difference. A lot of money will have been spent on the stadium also which wont have to be paid out either from next year...I think if anybody can sort the finance out it is MCManus - after all he took us from 4 million in debt to operating at a profit before and managed it without selling any big name stars. Lets hope it is just being blown out of proportion a bit'"
I never realised we were paying that to play at widnes, and thinking about it we must have been paying alot over the years for planning. But as mentioned other clubs not doing so well could well be in some bad financial trouble.
