The Cork County Board have reported almost €300,000 profit for the 11-month period from November last year to the end of September last.

The figures to be discussed at Saturday’s annual convention reveal an increase of €431,859 on last year’s €132,048 deficit and can largely be attributed to over €330,000 more in gross commercial income and €176,929 extra in gate receipts, which exclude the business end of the club championships.
