Article in the French press reporting Toulouse "on the verge of bankruptcy". Seems they are running with something like a 300,000 Euro deficit, despite an injection of cash at the start of the season.

Hughes pumped 1.8 million into the broncos every year in Superleague. I doubt other than maybe leeds if any European League Club is running at anything other than a loss....

Seems to be some conflicting reports from different parts of the RL press as to what the actual state of play is. I guess the full truth may come out in due course, but there was a lot of chat from Toulouse themselves at the start of the season around budgets/financial challenges, so I can't say I was entirely surprised.

One to keep an eye on I guess.

Sadly another team who knock around in a ground far too big for their fan base. Hope they can sort themselves out.

Crowds don't seem terrible, averaging around 3,500 this season according to Rugby League Project.

Just goes to show how much of a hole relegation from SL can blow in your finances at the minute, as we are well aware.

Nice to see that despite our victories over them, they consider Fev, Halifax & the Bulls as their competition for promotion.

Tbf looking at the way it's written, the comments re competition for promotion look like the come from total RL journo not from TOXIII.

Comments made by them are in quotations.
