Last years' accounts are pretty meaningless, especially as .....
Crowds in 2009 were up almost 70%,
Have a turnover of £800K+ in 2009 to-date (season tickets have yet to go on sale which will greatly increase this figure),
We got to 2 finals in 2009 and topped the league,
Are due to post a £100K+ profit in 2009,
Have, in the last 8 weeks, increased the club lottery income by £600 a week (£30K PA), a figure that is still growing weekly.
On top of this, the club has NEVER been been wound-up, even during the very dark days of the mid/late 90's and we own land worth approx £5M.
I'm not obsessed with barrow, I simply posted on a thread about barrow. Everything I said is correct.
I've said numerous times we'd love a chairman like DES. Your he one who's on the fax board every 2 minutes......which you are more than welcome to do as far as I'm concerned.
Regardless of DJ's input, we are more financially sound than 95% of Pro RL clubs - including most SL clubs. The most important thing is that the RFL know this as well.
No story here I'm afraid.'"
