And you belive that whilst the same year Batley who won nothing and no playoff's made a profit? He's talking out his anus!

To be fair if Steve O'Connor has put that level of investment in then that is very encouraging.

Calm down J20, you don't know Batleys wage bill, or the income from Bars etc

And neither would he know our books so why state in a press release?

Thats was just for the 'books', which is the point the Batley Chairman was making. You would 'lend' the club money, if you knew that there was at least 3 years of SKY monies plus increased income to roll in. Then he just reclaims his 'investment' and some.

..and J20 everyone knows, there is no way in the world you can make a one million pound profit playing in the championship.

There is no way in the world we'd be 1million worse off than Batley in 2009!

errr, Batley won the Northern Rail Cup mate. Suppose you've erased that memory from your mind.

Tax year is the previous one I.e. 2009... When Widnes won the NRC

Wouldn't that not show up in next season's accounts, not this?

I’ve no idea about how the esoteric, black arts, of accountancy works, but I’ve always assumed that recently published accounts are from the previous years trading?

Therefore, their NRC final will not be included in their recent financial results.

My bad! Studying Law not accounts thank god!

How can somebody injecting £2m into ta company result in extra profit. It will result in more cashg being available but it will simply be added to the creditors of the company, to be repaid at a later date

I have been told that O'Connor has offered to take the SL place with Widnes and he will pick up the contracts for the existing Crusaders players to form the basis of his new squad.
