Is that worse than ours Mrs B??

Impossible to tell from the limited data provided.

Where's Vince

The net liabilities are just over £1m.

Better than breaking even, going down and not getting a franchise. Not sustainable in the long-term, obviously.

I do think franchises and the criteria they will be based on have distorted the old view of Pro RL as a game played between two teams of 13 men (plus subs), on a grass pitch, between white H-shaped sticks. It is like a less joyful version of monopoly sometimes now.

So, in comparison with Hull, who have a real net liability position of just under £370k (I have taken the liberty of ignoring the nonsence figure of player valuation which is a blind stab in the dark), I'd say rovers financial statements were in a more risky state.

And thats with a wealthy backer.

I think it's more to do with the way some HKR fans (particularly barrow lad Vince) have brought up Hull FC's finances over the past few years at every opportunity.

If you dish it out, expect to take it.

Thread of the year. FACT.

And take it we did, ouch!

So apart from Hull FC fans and "Vince", does anyone care?
