The sponsorship income in their last accounts was £1.8m, which seems reasonable.

The main question seems to be about their "commercial income" of £4.7m, and how that is so high. Unfortunately, we don't analyse our income in the published accounts, which makes comparisons difficult.

However, their staff costs, at £6.8m, are much higher than ours (£3.7m), which suggests that the additional costs are incurred by the commercial operation. How much profit is generated (in either case) is difficult to tell.

Bottom line, though.... we made a profit on a much smaller turnover. They made a loss.
133 staff (including players/coaching) which seems high.
