Interest Payments

Hull have to pay out interest on loans taken out for various purposes.

The graph shows that the club has had negligible interest payments every year up to 2008. This is a great sign of a club living within its means, and must be applauded.

The 2008 figure is startling bigger than  any previous year, and is more evidence of a huge gamble. This gamble paid off but it may not have done and it is slightly surprising that a club that was only seven years on from a financial disaster should have taken such a risky route. The 2009 figure is hugely worrying given the huge drop in income from relegation.
