Glamorgan report healthy profit

Glamorgan have entered the black for the first time in nine years, reporting a profit of £14,688.

"We're delighted that after such a difficult summer, with the stadium under construction and the appalling weather affecting the Twenty20 matches, we've managed to return an operating profit of £268,500," Mike Fatkin, the club's chief executive, said. "Having recently announced major sponsorship agreements with SWALEC, The Really Welsh Company, Paramount Office Interiors and others, we're seeing an increase in sponsorship income from £90,000 back in 2005, to a projected £1.1million in 2008. We have recruited several players from other counties and I know the players and our supporters are looking forward to the 2008 season with a real sense of anticipation."
