Player trading
- Squad book value (intangibles NBV)£315k
In football accounting, "intangible assets" = player registrations. Amortisation is the contract cost spread over the years remaining.
HMRC exposure
- Tax & social security owed at year-end£556k
Unusually large HMRC balances at year-end can signal cash pressure. Most clubs file PAYE monthly, so a multi-million sum sitting unpaid is a flag.
