Better not read the entire article then.....seems it's not all doom and gloom...you'd best stick to the headline.

...how very true. The RFL have managed to keep their heads above water now for 10 straight years and are to be applauded for this, but it does put the 2 sports in perspective, when one can swallow such a massive negative year and then forecast posting a record year the next. They're even already planning for the loss they'll make at RWC 15 and 75,000,000 upgrade of Twickenham....and they reckon the bank loan for the last lot of work on TW2 will be settled by the end of this financial year too.....they freely admit to needing these autumn internationals and the 6 nations to make ends meet....but that's the point, they do make ends meet.
England v Fiji.....australia....south africa.....all blacks..82,000 a pop, 328,000...all they need is tickets at 20 quid each to make back their 6.3 with change.....AFIK, cheapest tickets to Twickenham start at 40 notes.

Lol, knew we could rely on you gutters! Those twickers rose tints are working a treat I see. Only you could suggest a 6mill+ loss in a year is not a bad thing.

It appears that the hard hit British taxpayer is going to help the RFU with costs

They expect to lose money in a RWC year. The shortfall is because they didnt have the autumn internationals at Twickenham 12 months ago.

Never said it wasn't a bad thing.......I said they could swallow it quite comfortably, which they can. I repeat, 82k x 4 x 40 notes minimum = 13 million pounds and change......but it's idiot RL fans who decry anyone who watches both codes and try to poke fun at the bigger one and fail to see/understand/admit the reality.....which would you rather....a sub 8k gate with tickets for 12 notes generating less than 100k or 13 million pounds for 4 friendlies?

The RFU could buy the RFL with change they find down tha back of their reception sofa....I get no pleasure stating this FACT, but it is a FACT all the same.

I'm not remotely interested in reading the full article. I couldn't give a flying fook about rugby union.
