You would think owning your own ground ( I thought you didn't own it) and making all that money would give you a big finically advantage over us, doesn't look like it at the moment.

I was going to put cue the Hull fans to tell us we don't own our own ground on the end of my post

Seems all positive noises coming out from our leaders we are in a stable position financially. That may change if no promotion within first year or 2? Can't pretend I wanted relegation but that is the way it played out and now I am looking forward to new season.will still watch superleague on sky and both leagues look interesting , lots of possible outcomes.

It looks like we are trying to be sustainable, and it was working before our horror season last year.
But being able to make decisions on events like the boxing, panto, and now this gig without having an SMC to put the spanner in the works makes the lightstream the go to arena in this city right now. Good on the club for diversifying.

It wasn't working, your chairman etc were having to put in 500k a year to help you survive. I guess all this extra stuff is helping you make up lost funding, let's be honest it's needed, as you still need to sign a few players for the middle 8's.

Let's be honest, the fact we can't host Boxing etc, isn't have a massive impact on our club, we are moving upwards and that's with the clowns in charge of the SMC, imagine that it will get even better if Pearson is involved in City.

Rookie mistake, fair play to the club for trying to maximise revunue, just not sure why the digs at us or clubs like Wigan (both trophy holders from last season)

Quantifying that sentiment I do keep an eye on hull city situation whilst not being a fan but I certainly wish them well.fcs financial situation doesn't interest me. Not sure why we fascinate you fellas?

Well Craig, I'm a rugby fan as well as a Hull fan, so all rugby interests me, even clubs finances, which are massivly important for teams and the game if it is to grow, also boring on the Hull forum, far too positive, although as I know being a Hull fan for many years it won't last, good word Quantifying.

Would any club survive without directors or owners putting there money in the only club that makes a profit is Leeds supposedly but they can't afford there new stand now

Absolutely it was needed. How could you make profit on a ground being open 14/15 times a year. Rovers made 15 thousand profit before our horror show last year, and with a million pound less in our coffers, these events are even more needed before we 'hopefully' go up next year.
