£1.9M loss for Bristol Rovers

Bristol Rovers have reported an operating loss of £1,939,141 for last season and chairman Nick Higgs says the club must cut its costs 'accordingly'.

Amidst the figures are the wage costs for last season which were £3.7M.

"Relegation to League Two impacts on the club with reduced revenues from the Football League, along with the requirements to introduce wage-capping as agreed by all League Two clubs," said Higgs.

"This has resulted in a much-changed squad for the new season as we adjust our cloth accordingly."

Rovers hope to move to a new ground in 2014. The cost is said to be around £40M.
