The potential of Manchester!

Is that like the potential of London?

Potential doesn’t pay the wages.

Finances! Check the thread, I don’t think Wakey have the problems of H.K.R.

Hull KR were offered the chance to play at the KC and they declined ....any decisions regarding the stadium are not made by the council they are made by the SMC.

The council own the stadium and have passed on its running to SMC on a fifty year lease. Both clubs have the option to prevent an other user coming in and using the pitch on regular basis. the pitch being of a woven and grass type is designed for around 55 matches a year and anymore would cause damage.

The international match was not at the KC last year due to a certain SMC boss at the time making it difficult for the RFL to arrange. The new SMC boss is Adam Pearson who is a lot more RL friendly then the last and has already stated he will ensure that International RL returns to the KC.

No. It's different. It's a potential that's been as yet untapped by Salford and Swinton. Give them time .............

wakefield are planning a new stadium, along with salford, cas ,and st helens.

stadiums cost huge money. far more than any rl team can afford. so very difficult to realise

wakefield not in millions of £ in debt
wakefield first team in play offs
wakefield academy champions
promotion of junior players into first team this season

hull kr are the only team playing in a dump who are making no plans to move out of it!

If they will never crystallise, why not waive them and reflect the adjustment in the accounts? Wigan had an amount owed to one of Lenegan's company that was written off in 2008 and disclosed as such.


Total of £1.4m thanks. They were £2.4m in 2004 but have reduced signifcantly after 5 years of profit.


Indeed, as do virtually all RL clubs. Saints do have the advantage of a £8.1m freehold asset also.

At the moment though - they are still at the same place on the starting blocks - in terms of stadia. I am "planning" to run the 100 meters in 9.78 seconds this year. I've got a diet, some new running shoes and a new athletics vest.

this is precisely what i mean. you have to start somewhere. at least you are making plans. unlike some

maybe you will get on tv then DM will see you and know everything about you

Sorry your post is absolute nonsence.

To use a recently used quote, your post is "written by someone with a basic knowledge of accounting and a little else"

Either repayment MUST be made within a 12 month period or there has to be some formal agreement for deferrment, which on the basis they are still current, would not appear to be the case.

The Article concerned is about as factual as you can get. It clearly states the date the accounts relate to and accuratly quotes figure from the accounts submit to companies house.

In short, you post was a pointless waste of effort.

OK, question time.

At what point did hullkr issue shares to the tune of £2m in the last 18 months?
or
At what point did hullkr take out long term loans the tune of £2m in the last 18 months?

If they didn't do either then you are talking nonsense.

The same as they are currently!

Do you think there is a warehouse full of rovers fans waiting for a new stadium before they go again? rovers have done well in exploiting their SL status to grow their fan base, AND YET THEY STILL LOSE MONEY HAND OVER FIST

rovers have been on the up for the last 4 season. I am sure we will see the true loyalty of some of these new found fans (not the 2500-3000 hardcore who stuck with them in the barron years) when thing really go pear shaped during the coming season

No set of financial statements will tell you that.

That being said its not difficult to guess who / what the current liabilities will include. There will be a fair amount of VAT owing to HMRC. There will be a fairly large amount of PAYE / NIC payable. There will be a certain amount of deferred income from season ticket sales for future matches. On the basis of the East stand extention, there will be a fair amount of monies owning for its construction. There will inevitably be a degree of directors loans. Going on past performance, you know that historically hkr have been very slow payers to their creditors leading to some small companies and business being put into their own financial difficulties, there will be a fair amount of smaller creditors who historically rovers have treated very poorly.
