THE Rugby Football Union has recorded post-tax profits in a World Cup season for the first time.
The financial results published yesterday show a profit of £1.5million for the year ending 30 June, an improvement of £3.3million on England's World Cup-winning year of 2003/04.

The challenge for the RFU was to generate new income streams to cover the loss of the autumn Tests which cost them £11.9million.
